I went and checked how nvidia-185-kernel-source does this.  Its postinst
works by calling /usr/lib/dkms/common.postinst, which was added in dkms
2.1.0.1-0ubuntu1.  common.postinst includes this check:

    dkms_status=`dkms status -m $NAME -v $VERSION -k $KERNEL $ARCH`
    …
    #if the module isn't yet built, try to build it
    if [ `echo $dkms_status | grep -c ": built"` -eq 0 ]; then
        …
        if [ -e /lib/modules/$KERNEL/build/include ]; then
            echo "Building initial module for $KERNEL"
            dkms build -m $NAME -v $VERSION -k $KERNEL $ARCH > /dev/null
            echo "Done."
            dkms_status=`dkms status -m $NAME -v $VERSION -k $KERNEL $ARCH`
        else
            echo "Module build for the currently running kernel was skipped since the"
            echo "kernel source for this kernel does not seem to be installed."
        fi
    fi

    #if the module is built (either pre-built or just now), install it
    if [ `echo $dkms_status | grep -c ": built"` -eq 1 ] && 
       [ `echo $dkms_status | grep -c ": installed"` -eq 0 ]; then
        dkms install -m $NAME -v $VERSION -k $KERNEL $ARCH
    fi
