You forgot about developers. Developer may want to use latest kvm kernel headers to compile code that he added to qemu to use new kernel feature.

The Right Way to do this is a make headers_install to a temporary directory and then -I include that directory. Building directly from the kernel source tree was never the right thing to do.

Thanks, this worked well.

What are your thoughts on renaming the configure option to --kernel-headers?

  --kerneldir=PATH         look for kernel includes in PATH

That's fine but FWIW, --kerneldir was intended to work with a kernel source tree. It's just that that's become impossible in recent kernels.
