What headers? RedHat and Fedora don't ship any kernel headers in kernels
2.4.x. And the only files under /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ are object files,
the modules.
and a symlink to the headers. For me that's the same thing, that point to
the right headers.

Maybe there was no other way in the past?
That statement is not correct. For example Doug Ledford Device Driver Kit
proves that wrong.
