The [EMAIL PROTECTED]@ packages are unknown to
kernel-package.

Nope. kernel-package does not provide dependencies on external
packages it is not aware of. There is an initial work on providing a
set of module packages to be used internally on virtual machines
slated for inclusion in lenny; when there shall my probably fat host
kernel images, lean virtual images with no modules, and a new modules
only package meant to be installed inside the virtual machine.
In no case would image or other module packages depend on this
modules package, though, so I don't think this dependency will be
exported, even for lenny.
