The gist of this is, if you are trying to access files like config.h, autoconf.h and compiler.h, you are getting into kernel internals. The linux-libc-dev package (formerely linux-kernel-headers) is not meant for that. Even if these files were included they would be useless, since they do not guarantee to reflect the right values for the running kernel.

Use the linux-headers-2.6.17-<flavour> package for these sorts of things (or just linux-headers-2.6.17 if you need generic values).
