I dont agree, as the problems i know dont come from incompatibilites
of kernel headers with those of the libc, but of incompatibilities
of the installed headers to the runing kernel, when using kernel
specific interfaces (think about drivers like mga_vid, vidix,
fbdev etc).

I think that's the reason why they introduced
/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/include
