You should add these lines to debian/rules for the build process
#v+
ifeq "$(wildcard $(KSRC)/include/net/ieee80211softmac.h)" ""
$(MAKE) SOFTMAC_DIR=/usr/src/linux-headers-$(KVERS)/include KDIR=$(KSRC) KVER=$(KVERS)
else
$(MAKE) SOFTMAC_DIR=$(KSRC)/include KDIR=$(KSRC) KVER=$(KVERS)
endif
#v-
BTW: Why did you write the variable _before_ the make command?
But the build raises this messages again:

The package builds fine and I can install it. But I can not load the
modules bcm43xx and the ieee80211softmac module.
