They most certainly are needed.   Modules should be unpacked in
/usr/src/modules, and then one can do a `make-kpkg
--append_to_version=-1-k7 modules_image` to create kernel modules that are
compatible w/ the running kernel.  See qc-usb-source for an example of
a kernel module that compiles fine against debian kernel headers.  The
modules you listed should be fixed.  Please assign bugs to them as
appropriate.
