CFLAGS += -I/usr/src/linux-2.2.1/include

That's how you should do it anyway. I usually have 4 different kernels
in /usr/src for 8 different machines.

If a module or any kernel dependant program thinks it can use
<linux/foo.h> just like that and get the includes of the currently
running kernel it's just plain br0ken.
