Bug Description

Upstream commit "Make the install command chain all the way back to adding the module" (SHA: e409c1681d433c4bea04deb2a9c2be6d02b3f83c) caused a regression of LP #702638 in the dkms-2.2.0.1-0ubuntu1 release for Ubuntu Oneiric.

The current working directory for PRE_ and POST_ invocations is the system root.

For example, if "PRE_BUILD=./configure" is set in the dkms.conf file, then generated files like "Makefile" and "config.status" are written to "/".
