The above quote that Ralf referred to is mine. I found that to be the case by trial-and-error experimentation with the version of kernel-package that was current at the time, which I believe was 12.036. I found that make-kpkg ... --rootcmd fakeroot kernel_image kernel_headers failed during the attempted creation of the headers package, but fakeroot make-kpkg ... kernel_image kernel_headers worked. I have not tried the above scenario with the new version of kernel-package yet. Both methods work fine for building the kernel image package, but only the second one works for building a headers package. Note that I was referring specifically to make-kpkg and not dpkg-buildpackage in general. -- .''`.
