Thanks for this hint. We seem to have two problems at stake here. The -source packages used to use kmk to build the modules, but there doesn't seem to be a reason for this, make seems to be the tool of choice here. And, yes, with make it works. However, IMO kbuild should handle the problem more gracefully. I don't know whether kmk is supposed to be compatible with make, but even if not it should give an error message if this is an incompatibility. I wouldn't bet it is one though as the message suggests that there is a difference between the real length and the stored one of a string containing a variable name. Torsten?
