Well I didn't test that and probably broke the old target names.
module-assistant and linux-modules-2.6 don't use kdist_image, but rather
binary-modules as the target, and with different arguments.

I should look at it and try to fix it.  Should be simple.  The more
methods we support the better after all.

Now we got it working with 2.6.29 at least, now we just have to get it
working with all the methods people want it to work with.

Most users of course use the debian kernels and either precompiled modules
(in the case of stable release) or use module-assistant to build modules
for the current debian kernel they have.
