I downloaded the kernel source with
apt-get install kernel-source-2.4.16

Then downloaded the lvm source and followed the instructions in 
README and INSTALL to patch the kernel and build and install the lvm tools.

Then I followed the instructions at
http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&q=debian+kernel+source
to build and install the patched kernel the debian way.

Seemed to work without a major problem.
