What a stupid check.

Jon, could you please apply this patch and release a new
module-init-tools? Depmod otherwise fails when building a kernel with
version 3.0 (without the third number).

Linus, I'm affraid this ruins the plan for Linux 3.0. Except if you want
to force users to upgrade module-init-tools, with the excuse that 3.0
is a huge step forward and breakage has to be expected ;-).

Michal
