There is another bugreport (#186930) in your list,
If you want you could merge its.

But i want to build modules _outside_ user-mode-linux, when submitter
#186930 (if I properly understood) wants to build modules inside
user-mode-linux. I think that both variants might to do if You place
headers into the directory /usr/src/linux-headers-`uname -r` 
(and would rename `uname -r` from (now) 2.6.26 to 2.6.26-uml)

Could You create a new package like as user-mode-linux-headers?

#186930 is very old.

Please inform me about your plans about these reports :)
