Hi, I am building kernels from kernel.org sources, and am having problems
detecting certain pci and usb devices (I didn't change the kernel code
much yet).
Where can I find the sources for programs that live in /sbin, /usr/sbin, etc.,
especially lspci, lsusb, lsmod?

Milton, your distribution of Linux should provide those.
For Debian Linux for example, you'd do:

$ dpkg -S lspci
pciutils: /usr/bin/lspci

..and you note that lspci is in the 'pciutils' package.
You could then do as follows:

$ apt-get update
....
$ apt-get source pciutils

The source would be downloaded and unpacked in the current working directory.
