Make modules_install doesn't create /lib/modules/$version

I've installed -test3, -test4, and now -test5, and each time make
modules_install died with the following error:

Kernel: arch/i386/boot/bzImage is ready
sh arch/i386/boot/install.sh 2.6.0-test5 arch/i386/boot/bzImage System.map ""
/lib/modules/2.6.0-test5 is not a directory.
mkinitrd failed
make[1]: *** [install] Error 1
make: *** [install] Error 2

I had to create the directory in question by hand, and then run it again, at
which point it worked.

Am I the only person this is happening for? (Bog standard Red Hat 9 system
otherwise. With Rusty's modutils...)
