What if (not a fictional example; a real case) the code is taken from a 
branch that comes from a recent code donation and source headers are 
still in the process of being updated to comply with the donation? 
Waiting for that code to be included in a formal release for sure solves 
the problem. But if one doesn't want to wait, I wouldn't know what to 
suggest.

Regards,
   Andrea.
