Ok,
If your custom kernel is on an embedded target you can use ucLibc. If 
you are runing on a host (a PC) you can download Libc6.

But there is a but... these headers are for userland not for kernel dev.
for the kernel dev, download you kernel headers it's something like
linux-headers.2.6.xx-yy

Note: for embedded systems you can use buildroot which will help you to 
download & install all that you need.
