Mirror at ftp://ftp.**.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/modutils/v2.3 replace '**' with your favourite kernel.org mirror. Master at ftp://ftp.ocs.com.au/pub/modutils/v2.3.

Horst von Brand. * Do not install kdstat and kerneld manual pages unless kerneld is compiled. Noticed by Debian. * config.c needs explicit include of <stdarg.h> on older libc.c. Noticed by everybody :(. * Ensure that sbindir exists before install binaries. Noticed by Wolfgang Weisselberg. * Sparc 32/64 fixes, Horst von Brand, Jakub Jelinek. * Set the default value of use-syscall based on a config check for the presence of query_module() in libc. Requested by Richard Gooch. * Add a config option for the default value of root-check. insmod -r is now a toggle. Requested by Richard Gooch. * Replace install -d with mkdir -p. install -d has an undocumented feature, it silently changes directory permissions to 755 even if the directory already exists! * MIPS ELF patch by Maciej W.
