Well I left out one file which I didn't notice because module-assistant
never cleans up after itself.

Here is an updated patch, with a bit of cleanup, along with a patch for
173xx legacy which has been updated to be identical to 180.29 except
for one line.  Should make future maintenance less work.

So this time I tested with:
rm -rf /usr/src/modules/nvidia*
m-a -t build nvidia-kernel nvidia-kernel-legacy-173xx -l 2.6.24-1-686,2.6.25-2-686,2.6.26-1-486,2.6.26-1-686,2.6.26-1-amd64,2.6.26-1-686-bigmem,2.6.26-2-486,2.6.26-2-686,2.6.26-2-686-bigmem,2.6.26-2-amd64,2.6.29-1-486,2.6.29-1-686,2.6.29-1-686-bigmem,2.6.29-1-amd64 -f

and got:

Looks promising to me.
