Apparantly in 2008 the "kernel-source" package isn't suitable for developmental work; the version information and config options don't match what the running kernel uses. It's the -devel packages that you need for third-party builds, and this behaviour is different than 2007 and 2007.1. It's what caused my initial problems, I'm pretty sure.
