U-Boot takes some care not to include  any  headers  from  the  build
host,  the  remaining  headers  are provided by the (cross) compiler.
Normally, __PTRDIFF_TYPE__ gets defined by the stddef.h  header  file
which   belongs   to   the  C  compiler  (normally  to  be  found  in
".../lib/gcc-lib/ppc-linux/?version?/include/stddef.h").

With the ELDK this contains:

	#ifndef __PTRDIFF_TYPE__
	#define __PTRDIFF_TYPE__ long int
	#endif

Check what your compiler defines there....

Best regards,
