With nvidia-kernel-source 169.07-1, I still get this error:

Perhaps /usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel does not understand --rootcmd?
If you see messages that indicate that it is not
in fact being built as root, please file a bug 
against /usr/src/modules/nvidia-kernel.
Hit return to Continue

Remarkably, compiling succeeds when preceding make-kpkg with fakeroot on
the command line.
