Sorry, it was my mistake. I had problems compiling the open-vm modules, so I 
tried many solutions and I also installed those -dev packages following this 
article:
http://www.debianadmin.com/install-open-vm-tools-on-debian-40-etch.html
I now understand that the only reason why I couldn't compile the modules is 
connected with bug #278711, while all those -dev packages are actually not 
needed to compile the modules. Applying the patch posted in bug #278711 solved 
my problems.
