An Apparent bug:
version 2.6.21.3
missing the file ./scripts/mod/elfconfig.h

I noticed this when trying to compile a 3rd party 
module. Maybe this is intended. Not sure.

I discovered this when I attempted to compile modpost.c 
in the same directory. The following is the output:

#> make modpost
cc     modpost.c   -o modpost
In file included from modpost.c:15:
modpost.h:12:23: error: elfconfig.h: No such file or 
directory
modpost.c: In function ‘handle_modversions’:
modpost.c:436: error: ‘MODULE_SYMBOL_PREFIX’ undeclared 
(first use in this function)
modpost.c:436: error: (Each undeclared identifier is 
reported only once
modpost.c:436: error: for each function it appears in.)
modpost.c:436: error: expected ‘)’ before string 
constant
