Urgh, I can't figure out what tickles it reliably.
There is at least another buglet (?) though, if you don't put a slash on
the end of your M=, you lose the subdir path.
[root@marathon-01 linux-2.6.18.x86_64]# make M=fs/ext3/ modules_install
INSTALL fs/ext3/ext3.ko
DEPMOD 2.6.18-8.el5
[root@marathon-01 linux-2.6.18.x86_64]# find /lib/modules/`uname
-r`/extra* -name ext3.ko
