Some of our people are running afoul of:

install-modules: modules
        $(MAKE) -C $(KLIB_BUILD) M=$(PWD) $(KMODDIR_ARG) $(KMODPATH_ARG) \
                modules_install
        @./scripts/update-initramfs



in the compat-wireless/Makefile on Ubuntu.

If they are cross-compiling, this tries to diddle their local system.

What would be a robust sanity check to inhibit this action in those cases?

Thanks,
