Hi Patrick,

thanks for posting the state of your analysis.

That would be good medium term, but...

... IMO, not using make -C $(KSRC) in lustre-source seems like a good  
option for lenny because it is an inherently local fix (i.e. it only  
changes the behavior for one module) where fixing make-kpkg or  
anything else is necessarily less so.
As such, what do you think about dropping make -C $(KSRC) and  
downgrading the the severity of this bug after that has migrated to  
lenny?

Kind regards

T.
