I hope you are all joking here.

Until now, the real way has been "cd /usr/src && ./build.sh" or something
similar. Before that, it used to be "cd /usr/src && make && make install".

We can not now silently break this without proper notice and useable 
replacement.

And for no good reason. At least none has been given here.
