You can also get the 4.3 kernel from jessie-backports, which should be a
little less disruptive than using Debian Stretch/Testing for the whole
chroot. You'll also need to get ltsp from jessie-backports as well, as
the newer kernels aren't backwards compatible with older versions of
LTSP due to incompatibilities in the upstream "overlay" fs support.

On a related note, Probably a good idea to get your server upgraded to
Debian Jessie/Stable, before Wheezy/Oldstable goes out of support.

Are you experiencing any problems, or just alarmed about the error
message?

What's the output of:

  ltsp-info

Do you need to compile custom modules for the kernel, or other custom
software that relies on the header files?
