[Bug 549990] [NEW] DKMS build can't find linux/bounds.h

Binary package hint: virtualbox-ose

While installing virtualbox-ose (3.0.8 from Karmic repos) with 2.6.31-20
DKMS fails to build kernel module because it can't find linux/bounds.h.
After copying bounds.h from 2.6.31-19 to:

/lib/modules/2.6.31-20-generic/build/include/linux/bounds.h

all went well installing with apt-get and my virtual machine runs.  Note
that linux-headers-2.6.31-20-generic does provide bounds.h at:

/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.31-20-generic/include/linux/bounds.h

Perhaps that path should be used instead?  Or perhaps this is really a
bug with the linux-headers package since 2.6.31-14 and -19 both had
bounds.h under their /lib/modules paths.
