Hmm..  I don't see this when I run it on x86

make TARGETS=kcmp
for TARGET in kcmp; do \
	make -C $TARGET; \
done;
make[1]: Entering directory
'/lkml/linux-kselftest/tools/testing/selftests/kcmp'
cc -I../../../../include/uapi -I../../../../usr/include/    kcmp_test.c
  -o kcmp_test
make[1]: Leaving directory
'/lkml/linux-kselftest/tools/testing/selftests/kcmp'

oh well. I don't want to make the change, since it introduces warnings
on powerpc.
