This was intended to remove the need to alter the module tools on the build 
host.  The kernel build happens before the build of the busybox modprobe, 
with the result that the kernel build tries to use depmod from the build host 
instead of the one that goes with the kernel being bootstrapped.

Your build worked yesterday because you've already got module-init-tools 
installed on your build host, and you're using it to install the kernel.

Ditto the above for mkcramfs, which is built as part of module-init-tools.
