Modules get placed into wrong /lib/modules/... directory tree

Reproducible: Always

2. make the kernel
3. emerge vmware-modules

Actual Results:

These lines should already reflect {CONFIG_LOCALVERSION} .

Sorry, above line

   > 3. emerge vmware-modules

should read

   "3. emerge nvidia-drivers"
