This was caused by a bug in 2.6.12-1, which persisted during an upgrade to -5.

Can you try uninstalling all the linux-headers-2.6.12-1* packages, and
reinstall the m ? This should solve the problem.

Waldi, even if 2.6.13 is at hand and should solve this issue, we should at
least document this or better yet issue a warning during install or fix the
issue.
