It seems we need to be explicit about KMODPATH_ARG now, so lets

make sure we do that. Otherwise we'll get the build system
to install our new modules in the kernel header's Makefile
kernel release. This is what you would expect if you are
building ontop of your own kernel sources but not ontop
of your distribution's kernel.

For example, on Ubuntu Hardy, which is on , you would get
modules installed under the directory:

/lib/modules/2.6.24-rc7/

This is because the Makefile /lib/modules/2.6.24-4-generic/build/Makefile

had defined:

VERSION = 2
PATCHLEVEL = 6
SUBLEVEL = 24
EXTRAVERSION = -rc7

What you really want is the modules to be installed instead under
