This REALLY needs fixing. If it weren't so late right now I might have written
a filter that takes a tarball and sanitizes the permissions. I've got

for compiling the kernel as root (when in the make, install, reboot, test loop
it's quite a timesaver).

Isn't it just an extra ten seconds to type the 'sudo' in front of 'make
modules_install' and enter your password? I guess I totally don't get
it.
