Well. ...
can you give the output of :
dpkg -l | grep linux-header
Please, the issue may be related to you not having the right header package
installed, or the header package being buggy, but i believe the first to be
the case. You need the per flavour linux-header package, which should include
a configured .config file, settign the $KERNELRELEASE variable to the right
thing, somwhere in this chain something may be wrong, either on your part or
ours.
Another try is :
apt-get source -b pwc
