I created a package in the tree called template. The kernel module builds and
loads fine. In the course of putting it in a package I have to choose 
CONFIG_MOD_TEMPLATE and a couple other items in a manner which doesn't
conflict with existing options. I don't really need to be part of menuconf, I 
don't
need these options.  I also tried the V=99 option, to see what is happening.
The output from this is a little too verbose for me.  My plan now is to try to
find out how obj-m is processed on my ubuntu install to see how I can
apply this to the openwrt toolchain.
