"make install" just runs the distro install script, usually
/sbin/installkernel, which at least on F-14 will then run
/sbin/new-kernel-pkg /sbin/dracut to build the initrd etc.
And that runs "depmod", which seems to end up being confused: we give
it the new kernel version as an argument, but it seems to not like it,
so it decides to do "uname()" to get the _current_ kernel version
instead, and that is where the confusion comes from.
If it works for you, I suspect you're running a different distribution.
