Hello Julien Sorel :-)

Do you by any chance build kmods in mock as well?
I'm having trouble building this SRPM in mock because it's looking for the kernel sources of `uname -r` which will return the host machine version and arch instead of the current i386 CentOS chroot.

Any elegant way out of this?
