My understanding of how modules are built in 2.6 kernels and

my experience the user building modules needs write access to the kernel

consistent with what i have experienced the only way as a user to build is to
change the owner to yourself of the tree or give all write access to the tree
2.6 kernel modules DO NOT NEED the kernel source in order to build. The
headers supplied in /lib/modules/VERSION/build/include are generally all
kernel modules need to build against. In most cases a module needs
fixing if it does not live up to this rule, or maybe just the build
procedure.
