Yes, they will probably change. These include files provide most of the basis for software hooks to the os and hardware, and all the standard development headers. Following the proper upgrade procedure, you sholdn't have any problems.

Well, modules for 2.4 probably need to be changed/re-written to work under 2.6. The whole module interface changed.
