I pulled this patch into my local tree to try it out. The attached patch 
removes spurious warnings about linking pic and non-pic object files.

It might be better to pass KBUILD_CFLAGS into the script to get the same 
build options as the rest of the kernel. Was there a reason not to do this?

Chris
