Hmmm. I am running 2.1.72 and have run some other 2.1 kernels
before that and never needed to have the symlinks. I compile
ftape from sources because the binary package is kernel specific,
and it looks in /usr/src/linux/include, as the kernel itself does.
Surely this technique is widely enough known that all
software should be using it by now that needs the kernel-specific
headers.
