The solution
make -C KERNEL_SOURCE SUBDIRS=$PWD modules
is fine, but you have to have a Makefile in the current directory,
and that Makefile needs a somewhat different form for 2.4 and
2.5 kernels. Here is a quick and dirty script for generating
a quick boilerplate for the sources in that directory. Straightforward
to customize and extend etc. (You may have to change some whitespace
to TABS for make...)

# Should work on all 2.4, 2.5 kernels.
# assumes all .c files in current directory are modules
