-  Since we cannot actually build in /usr/src/linux, a fake build directory
-  is created using symlinks, and makefiles should be pointed <b>there</b> to

+  This is the traditional method. kmod.eclass handles this situation by using

+  the fallback method for use until people convert to the new style of building.
