The modules.* files shouldn't be part of the resulting .deb because
the linux-image packages ship the files already, therefore the
resulting debian package of misdn-source can't be installed.
Adding something like:
rm -f debian/$(pmodules)/lib/modules/$(KVERS)/modules.*
to debian/rules fixes the problem.

Hello,
Thanks for your interest in improving Debian, and sorry that the bugs
were not fully resolved in due time.
misdn packages have been recently removed from experimental [1], they
had been removed from unstable a few years ago [2].
[1] http://packages.qa.debian.org/m/misdn-kernel/news/20120627T165811Z.html
[2] http://packages.qa.debian.org/m/misdn-kernel/news/20071201T181403Z.html
The bugs are now orphan (without maintainer assigned) so they probably
will not be noticed/modified further. So I think that the best
solution is to close them now, doing it. Please comment if you want
to handle the reports in some other way (reassigned to other packages,
etc.).
Cheers.
