I'll try to find out.

The c files are deleted by the kernel.bbclass not by "make clean" while make 
clean deletes the bounds.h... Who is doing the wrong thing now? kernel.bbclass 
removing the bounds.c, kernel's make clean removing the bounds.h or the module 
author relying on modules.h?

I don't know if/what the problem is with regenerating some things in 
module.bbclass. It is already done with "make scripts". Cleaning up 
things to save diskspace and recreating if needed does not seem to 
bad to me. Am I missing something?

Franz
