I'm seeing depmod segfault with the latest Fedora 7 kernel.  Every
time it runs (manually or automatically), it segfaults.

I ran it through strace, but this is what it shows before dying which
doesn't look too useful:

open("/lib/modules/2.6.22.4-65.fc7/updates",
O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE|O_DIRECTORY) = 4
fstat64(4, {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=6, ...}) = 0
fcntl64(4, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC)         = 0
getdents(4, /* 2 entries */, 4096)      = 32
getdents(4, /* 0 entries */, 4096)      = 0
close(4)                                = 0
open("/lib/modules/2.6.22.4-65.fc7/weak-updates",
O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_LARGEFILE|O_DIRECTORY) = 4
fstat64(4, {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=6, ...}) = 0
fcntl64(4, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC)         = 0
getdents(4, /* 2 entries */, 4096)      = 32
getdents(4, /* 0 entries */, 4096)      = 0
close(4)                                = 0
getdents(3, /* 0 entries */, 4096)      = 0
close(3)                                = 0
--- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) ---
