Hi,
[Please retain the CC to address@hidden so
that the Debian Bug Tracking system can record your input]
This has been reported by a debian user.
I have confirmed that the problem exists with the latest Linux
make and the kernel source, (2.4.17 at the time of writing). I
thought perhaps the locale was to blame? I would suspect that Pásztor
probably uses a non C, non English locale, and I am currently running
under en_US.UTF-8, but I get the same (bad) results even in the C
locale. So, tested bad: C, en_US.UTF-8, de_DE. However, others,
running under spanish and de.DE.ISO-8859-1 find that the output is
sane. I am at a loss as to how to proceed to further define this
issue -- perhaps the locale this is a red herring.

With a 2.4.5 or 2.4.13 kernel source, make -np produces garbage upon
substituting filenames when making modules and works properly when
making symlinks.
sample output from make -np symlinks:
