Actually, it will create a directory called (appropriately) kernel-source-2.2.19, which can be left as-is. (That's one of a few differences between a kernel-source-....deb and a tarball downloaded from kernel.org) Also, as I think someone else has already pointed out, if you're looking for a kernel header, try a kernel-headers package instead of a kernel-source.
