Actually, I think it's a different problem that it is illustrated in
the cdrecord

Take a look at ' Why we copy the kernel headers and don't symlink them'
http://archive.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs-museum/5.0/LFS-BOOK-5.0-HTML/chapter06/kernel.html

Reading that paragraph, and reading the cdrecord notes,  I think
what's happening is cdrecord is looking for the '/usr/src/linux'
directory  (Which would only exist, is someone renamed their kernel
directory), and I think problems would only happen if /usr/src/linux
contained different kernel headers then the system.
