I've further investigated the problem that I was seeing, and I
conclude that it is present in non-Xen Linux as well (e.g., native
i386).

This works:
ARCH=xeno make mrproper oldconfig dep bzImage

...and this works:
ARCH=xeno make mrproper
ARCH=xeno make oldconfig
ARCH=xeno make dep
ARCH=xeno make bzImage

...but this DOESN'T work:
ARCH=xeno make mrproper
ARCH=xeno make oldconfig dep
ARCH=xeno make bzImage

(make[2]: *** No rule to make target
 `/linux-2.4.25/include/linux/modversions.h', 
 needed by `sched.o'.  Stop.)

I have no explanation for this behaviour -- reading the manual for
make I would expect all three to work correctly. If you exclude the
'ARCH=xeno' from each line (i.e., build native x86 Linux) then the
problem still appears!

At least it's not a bug that we've created. :-D
