It sounded like it would work, but not "automatically"..  If I were to
incorporate this change back into the SPEC file I use then I'd make
sure it did iterate through all the kernels and build them all.

Which "inevitable person" is this?

Having a package for each kernel module is useful (OTOH sometimes I
like having a single package with ALL the kernel modules so I don't
need to know which particular kernel I'm using at any one time).
