Why? Can you explain what is lacking with this script that you are
suggesting adding another variable to track through the build system?

I suppose a 'toolchain/scripts' directory would be okay. I do
question the need for 'depmod.pl' at all. Doesn't the target
'cross-depmod26' create the depmod that does the same thing?
