I think you are looking for:
make kernelrelease

otaku@gimli linux-2.6.10 $ make kernelrelease
make: *** No rule to make target `kernelrelease'. Stop.
otaku@gimli linux-2.6.10 $ cd ..
otaku@gimli src $ cd linux-2.4.28
otaku@gimli linux-2.4.28 $ make kernelrelease
make: *** No rule to make target `kernelrelease'. Stop.
otaku@gimli linux-2.4.28 $

I don't think this will help.

Including the kernel's Makefile also is no option, I think ("rulespace pollution").

Bye, Mike
