Hmm, maybe --rpm_safe_upgrade should imply the behaviour of
--force for the install step.  Then, we can release an updated version
of dkms that "just works" for all the existing RPMs built like this.

I kind of like that...

If anyone has a patch of this, or another pet bug, now would be a good
time to send them to the list again.  If I'm fixing this one, might as
well apply other patches and do a release, if there's anything out
there that's bothering you...
