Ok, you might want to correct the Wiki then.

Also, in a cross-building environment, I'm not sure why admin-clean.sh mucks with the host's kernel sources:

$ scripts/admin-clean.sh
cat: /home/philipp/cw/compat-wireless-2.6/compat-release: No such file or directory
cat: /home/philipp/cw/compat-wireless-2.6/compat-release: No such file or directory
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.32.4-30.fc12.x86_64'
