It is.  That's why my rpm
(https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1019) includes the
following patch:

--- Makefile.orig	2003-08-03 13:50:09.000000000 -0500
+++ Makefile	2003-10-30 17:25:32.000000000 -0600

Then you just need to define KERNEL_* correctly.

I just submitted a similar patch for zaptel (again, last time was in
April of last year).

Broken Makefiles don't change the facts...  The software builds fine
without the rest of the kernel source.
