Sorry about that.

I am thinking about adding
"mkdir -p $(PROJECT_BUILD_DIR)/autotools-stamps" to the top level
Makefile. That way we are sure the stamps directory exists, and each
package/Makefile.autotools.in does not need to run an additional mkdir.

Hmmm, weird, the Makefile should not install the modules before after
the kernel is prepared.

I see you are using external toolchain, might that be the cause? The
kernel is prepared/compiled before the modules are compiled?
