/lib/modules/(stock2.6.21kernel)# du -s
60804 .
/lib/modules/(my2.6.21kernel)# du -s
538292 .

That's a 785% increase in space consumed by my modules over stock modules.
Does that happen for anyone building their own Factory kernel? Can a more
normal space consumption be made to happen by a mere mortal kernel building
novice like myself?

What I did was:
1-apply the patch from http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7513
2-zcat /proc/config.gz > .config
3-make menuconfig to add smbfs and change the CONFIG_LOCALVERSION
4-make
5-make modules_install
6-INSTALL_PATH=/boot make install
7-fix the resulting broken /boot/grub/menu.lst
