 If you weren't using the package users hint, the problem would not
arise.  Therefore we can assume that allowing the kernel's headers
to be installed is the well-tested choice.

 In the sense that LFS is "your distro, your rules" you are, of course,
free to do things differently.  I've no idea *which* packages in a
fully-built system use these particular headers (probably, not much
in LFS itself).  Taking a look at the two sets of headers, they aren't
*that* different, so it is possible that both *might* work.
