No, I didn't, I just wanted to get my testing done so that I could push out.

Nope. Building in the normal source directory. I've never seen the
point of "O=" outside of "one source tree, many objects trees", and
even that is rather questionable in the age of sane and efficient
source control.

I don't mind that part. It's just that "unknown module key
'Magrathea'" that I don't think is exactly obvious unless you've seen
it before..
Just replacing "Magrathea Glacier signing key" with "Kernel build-time
random signing key" would make the error messages when the key is
wrong a bit more natural, wouldn't you say?
Perhaps a bit square and boring, but ..
