There is a check in the Kbuild file that is supposed to tell you that
this kernel is too old, but apparently it's not working. Linux 2.6.8
doesn't read Kbuild.
Moving this check to Makefile would complicate things. I guess a better
solution would be to create a README file for the standalone
distribution that would document standalone compilation.

Since the Kbuild file is not picked up, the list of modules to build is
not available to the build system, so it ends up doing nothing.

What you are doing wrong is asking loaded questions. If something is
not working it doesn't mean that you are doing something wrong. It can
be a problem with the software or with the documentation, and it is
actually the case.
