I did not test that yet, but the sources itself are not needed of course. The divas4linux-melware package uses (unlike the eicon package) the kernels build system without changing the sources. So if the installed header-package provides the possibility to build a kernel module using the kernels Makefile, then it is enough. As far as I know these header package really provide the more than the headers: the Makefiles, scripts and config files.
