Package: kernel-kbuild-2.6-3
Version: 2.6.8-2
Severity: important
Extra modules can't be built for an x86_64 kernels as the modpost linked
from the kernel-headers-2.6.8-11-em64t-p4-smp/scripts/mod directory is
looking for 32 bits ELF headers.
You can test this by using modpost on any x86_64 kernel module and
you'll get "no symtab" error.
I had to grab the kernel-kbuild-2.6-3 for amd64 and use
--force-architecture to install it to be able to build the extra module
I needed.

The 2.6.8 kernel is no longer supported by Debian so I'm closing
your bug report. Please try the 2.6.26 kernel from Debian lenny.
If this issue is still present, let me know.
Thanks.
