At the request of Linus, I switched to moving the kernel dependencies into
other files in July/August/September of 1999.  It took about six weeks to
convert and test all of the drivers, but when I was finished Linus ignored

The buglet is in pci-scan.c.  The modversions signatures were appended, even
when pci-scan.o was not a module.  It was fixed in v1.02 with the following
change:
