This is entirely the fault of the module-unfriendly kernel build system.
When this get fixed, the foolproof script will look like this:

ki=/usr/src/linux-`uname -r`/include
[ -d $ki/config ] || ki=/opt/src/linux-`uname -r`/include
[ -d $ki/config ] || ki=/usr/src/linux/include
[ -d $ki/config ] || { echo "no kernel source found"; exit 1 }
make modules modinstall -f $ki/config/module.mk KINCLUDE=$ki
