Specifically, I want to build a package for debian/lenny using the latest uvc drivers. I can compile and install them, but I want them packaged in the normal debian fashion. I imagine I want to use make-kpkg somehow, but I don't know how. module-assistant seems no good, because that seems to only use sources available in debian.

There is a better solution than m-a: dkms
It actually makes it easier to distribute external kernel modules and automatically compiles them for newer kernel-versions (think installing a new package of linux-headers).
