Sorry, I haven't seen that error message before. But from the first
line ("for module in ; do"), it appears that no values
were placed in the 'for' iteration loop.

I've only rarely used 'make-kpkg modules_install' as I prefer
monolithic kernels without modules. But, the times I've used it (like
building pcmcia modules package or the debian nvidia kernel module
package), it's worked fine.

One possibility: make-kpkg is designed to work with Debian kernel
source packages, like 'kernel-source-2.6.11'. It won't work with plain
linux kernel tarballs.
