If 'make installkernel KERNCONF=name' does not install a debug version of the kernel it should not install debug versions of the modules as well. However, it would be very useful to have something like a 'make installkerneldebug' target which does install the debug versions of both kernel and modules (I now install the debug kernel manually).
