Currently, installing the userspace and kernel/realtime portions
separately is not supported by the Makefile.  If you need do this for
packaging reasons, you may have to use something besides the "make
install" target.

One wrinkle to keep in mind is that e.g., emc_module_helper and
rtapi.conf aren't "modules" per se, but they do depend on the exact
versions of the kernel and rtai that are installed.  Thus the
distinction between "userspace" and "modules" is not the one you're
looking for when you split emc2 into "kernel-independent" and
"kernel-dependent" parts.

With this in mind, I've modified HEAD's Makefile to separate these two
categories of file into separate installation targets.
    http://cvs.linuxcnc.org/cvs/emc2/src/Makefile.diff?r1=1.102;r2=1.103;f=h

If you are still planning to produce emc2 packages for bdi, please let
me know if these changes fit your needs.
