[Xen-users] Kernel Headers for Xen Kernel

[Olaf <no_address_here@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

My apologies for posting this question on this list but I figured that 
the Debian aficionados on this list might be more familiar with the 
issue than the general Debian user. As for the question itself, it most 
likely will attest more to my lack of knowledge than any issue with 
Xen.
Ok, here we go: How do I generate the source header files for a  2.6.11 
kernel patched with Xen 2.0.6?
Some background: I´m trying to compile a few special modules (ibmsmb, 
for the IBM Director Agent, and zaphfc, for HFC-based ISDN cards, in 
case anyone is interested) and their Makefiles assume the presence of 
kernel source header files in case they are build against a 2.6 kernel. 
That is, some meaningful code in /lib/modules/`uname 
-r`/build/include/linux...
I´m using the unstable packages kernel-source-2.6.11 and the 
kernel-patch-xen to generate the source tree. I also copied the .config 
from the xen0 directory created when downloading the xen 2.0.6 source 
distribution. Trying to build a kernel package using
make-kpkg --added patches=xen --config=menuconfig --arch=xen 
--subarch=xen --revision=xenserver.0.1 kernel-image
works just fine (but I should admit that I haven´t tried that kernel) 
and generates a Debian kernel package in /usr/src. However trying the 
same with
make-kpkg --added patches=xen --config=menuconfig --arch=xen 
--subarch=xen --revision=xenserver.0.1 kernel-image kernel_headers
still generates only the kernel-package.

Doing just a

make-kpkg kernel_headers

is successful in creating a kernel-headers package but I´m wondering if 
that´s then for the right architecture.
At this point I´m well willing to do away with the luxury of Debian 
packages if only I could compile the darn modules. Hence the broad 
question about _any_ way to generate the header files. If there´s a 
neat way to generate a Debian package, that would be to good to be 
true. I should also mention that I´d appreciate any not so subtle hint 
what I´m missing here.
Thanks in advance
    Olaf
