Perhaps it makes more sense to have vdso_install be a dependency of

Would work for me -- modules_install ofcourse runs as root.
The installed vdso images are potentially useful for a kernel when you
aren't bothering to build or install any modules, but those images are
only ever useful for sophisticated debugging uses anyway.
Sam, any thoughts? (See arch/x86/Makefile and arch/powerpc/Makefile.)
Or maybe update the installkernel "protocol" to add these in?
The only kind of install runs I actually care about are for packaging
system builds. There the packaged build does 'make vdso_install'
explicitly anyway (at least Fedora rpms' .spec does). So if the
consensus is just to drop the dependency on vdso_install completely, I
don't object.
Did that for now...
