    I need to hassle Sam about that.

    Sam, why do we have FORCE on the rules for $(hostprogs-y)? It forces the
    ihex2fw tool to be rebuilt, which in turn forces all .HEX->.fw
    conversions to happen again, which means that 'make modules_install'
    wants to write to the source tree. That's a problem in some strange
    situations like Rafael's, where he builds on another host and exports
    the tree read-only by NFS.

    Can we do this? ...

    diff --git a/scripts/Makefile.host b/scripts/Makefile.host
