"Workaround" as in "With this options set, `make deb-pkg` crashes out with the
reported error, while with this option unset it produces a deb package
of a signed
kernel and modules."  This looks like a defect in the build system to me and the
workaround allows me to build a package in the meantime.

Sorry for being unclear - I'm not building with `make all`, I'm
building with `make deb-pkg`.
If I had to guess, I'd say the .deb depends on the uncompressed modules
rather than the dependency depending on whether module compression is turned
on or not, but it's only a guess.
