You don't need the kernel-headers package.  All the headers required are in
the kernel-source package.  You don't need the symlink either, the headers
are included from the right places automagically.  I've got neither and
can compile 2.2.13 no problems.

I don't profess to know how it all works, jusk that it works :-)
