OK that was an operator error. You are absolutely right

What happened is that my makefile was using
make KBUILD_OUTPUT=.build_um -C linux
and not
make O=.build_um -C linux

This was done at the time because when building out-of-tree
modules (I Have some test modules that I build in my project)
You must use KBUILD_OUTPUT= because O= is used by the external
module build system.

But reverting to use the O= as it should be all is well
and it works as you say

Sorry for the noise
