modprobe can't handle serveral layers of dependency

[Sonic Zhang]

We use depmod.pl under busybox subfolder example to generate modules.dep.

NM=bfin-linux-uclibc-nm
/home/sonic/projects/uClinux-dist/user/busybox/depmod.pl -P _ -v -b
/home/sonic/projects/uClinux-dist/romfs/lib/modules/ -k
/home/sonic/projects/uClinux-dist/linux-2.6.x/vmlinux


The same depmod.pl script works for kernel 2.6.34 but fails for kernel 3.0.0.

Any suggestion on the possible cause?


Thank

Sonic Zhang
