   * A whole bunch of spelling corrections and grammar changes, with many
thanks to Diego Biurrun <diego@biurrun.de>
* export a number of additional variables in the environment. These
variables are: root_cmd FLAVOUR INT_SUBARCH APPEND_TO_VERSION
UNSIGN_CHANGELOG  UNSIGN_SOURCE ROOT_CMD. This added information flow
through should make the modules config more flexible
* Missed an  $(EXTRAV_ARG) while installing modules, which cause d the
modules to be installed in the wrong directory. Thanks to  Robert
Bihlmeyer <robbe@orcus.priv.at> for catching this. closes: Bug#86727
* Added and environement variable FLAVOUR_SEP that determines the
seperator for the (deprecated) flavour variable
* The spelling of documentation, fixed in last upload, closes: Bug#85194
* Well, apparently insisting that the package name be lowercase is
kosher. closes: Bug#57187
* Now versioned patch directories no longer shadow unversioned patch
directories; since the local admin may no longer have control over
where the patches live. closes: Bug#89877
* now suggest libdb3-dev, since some modules apparently depend on
it. Really, this should be a kernel documentation issue. closes: Bug#90869
* Fixed typo in man page section. closes: Bug#90893
* Also remove /lib/modules/$version/modules.generic_string and
/lib/modules/$version/modules.parportmap. closes: Bug#93044
* Use savelog to rotate lilo.conf if asked to overwrite the old
one. savelog is part of debianutils, a required package. closes: Bug#93963
