Dear Peter, Thank you for investigating this bug and reporting back. I can confirm that installing the linux-generic package allowed the nvidia drivers, and bbswitch, to compile, but I now have another problem with the nvidia drivers. I think this is because I built the system without the linux-generic package - so I'm going back and starting again. But I confirm that your diagnosis about the bbswitch bug is correct.
Thanks very much for your help and I'm sorry that I didn't notice this myself.

The nouveau driver is unstable with my nvidia Geforce 8200 integrated graphics, so installed the nvidia-331 package, using apt-get install nvidia-331. dkms also failed to build (separate bug reported) as did bbswitch. This bug may be similar to bug #1283461 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1283461 which relates to a slightly different kernel version.
