I am using opensuse 10.2 and the build directory is linked to the default
directory: 

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 43 Feb  7 01:29 /lib/modules/2.6.18.2-34-default/build ->
/usr/src/linux-2.6.18.2-34-obj/i386/default

so KERNELDIR get set to the default directory (KERNELDIR=$(readlink -f
$kerneldir)) in configure

I installed kvm-12 before this, could it have caused this?
