When I tried to compile xserver-xorg-video-intel in jaunty (to include a
temporary fix to make it work on my laptop (freedesktop.org bug
#17292)), I found that it needed libdrm-2.4.3, and I ended up having to
do a lot of convoluted copying of include files, kernel package builds,
a libgl1-mesa rebuild, etc, just to get it to compile and (sort of?)
work, mainly because of the fact that the drm includes came from linux-
libc-dev instead of libdrm-dev. I found it very messy to have to deal
with...

With the kernel package so dependent on libdrm, it would make more sense
for the include files to come from libdrm-dev, and the kernel build-deps
to include libdrm-dev and to use those include files instead of making a
copy of its own, imho...
