That's exactly what it was.  Thanks, Peter and der Mouse.  I get
burned by this every time, you'd think I'd learn.  (On the other
hand, I only do it about every third year...)

Now, WRT my kernel sources not linking, is that a case of a
tools/source compatibility clash, old sources (June 10th), or
something else?  Any guesses?
