Hi kbuild maintainers, Attached is a one-line patch to scripts/Makefile.modpost which fixes a compilation problem I had building some out-of-tree modules (linux-gpib) against a 2.6.17.6 kernel. The problem was KBUILD_EXTMOD was set to SUBDIRS, which contained paths to multiple directories. This made modulesymfile get set to a bad value. I used $(firstword ...) to set modulesymfile using only the first directory in KBUILD_EXTMOD, like the way MODVERDIR is set in the top-level Makefile.
