I can't believe even mandrake to be THAT fucked up. How would 
you keep modules for different kernel versions apart if this 
was true? Wouldn't even linux kernel "make modules_install" 
bork if this was true?  

Anyway, even in the unlikely event that this is true, you DON'T 
have to run "make install" if you don't want to so I can't see 
how it could hurt anyone at all. Worst I can think of right now 
is it'll eat some bandwidth and even that probably less than 
what mailing this (off topic) thread to everyone on the 
mailinglist ate :)
