BTW, I can across an additional problem that I'm not sure how to solve.
I'm using PRE_BUILD and POST_BUILD to apply a patch during a bisect. As
soon as the bisect hits a tree where the patch applies, the module
tar-up fails. The kernel version (and module path) has a '-dirty' but
ktest.pl is calling its get_version after POST_BUILD when the tree is clean.
