Ah, I was confused. It built all of the modules in the past as well. It
just wasn't a problem before because everything built correctly.
Today it appears to be bombing while compiling the "zyd" device, which
wouldn't be so annoying if it weren't at the end of the alphabet...
I'm going to clean up and start over from the beginning. If it happens
again and I can't figure it out, I'll post my kernel configuration and the
error message.
