What shall be a bug? There is no bug. You got informed about available
updates. To install the kernel packages you need to use up2date with
parameter -f. And it is pretty normal that the up2date spool directory
contains the header files for all available packages.

Args, please please! set up use of mirror sources! See i.e. for
instructions

Change the source server _before_ you start to fetch these big update
packages. The main server is already very very slow.
