You are welcome.   Folks should be reminded from time to time about
Occam's razor.  To paraphrase, the simplest explanation is usually the
correct one.

Comment....

The *key* (as previously noted) is the string 2.4 is being matched in
the current kernel name.  So, 2.4 in the ifneq statement needs to be
changed so it *does not* match since this is in reality a 2.6 kernel. 
Maybe I confused you since I changed it to 2.9 because I am too lazy to
change it to 9999.9999 or something equally unlikely to be in the kernel
name.

Also, FWIW, only the first change in the findstring line of config.mk is
really needed.  I, again, was too lazy to change it back.

No thank you.  I've seen the correct output too many times.
