While doing some experimental work with kernel packaging,
I found a few places where a lack of error messages made
it difficult to figure out what was going on. This cleans
up the error messages to be a bit more useful.

  build: Properly check for Cython
  modprobe: Add appropriate error message when path is missing
  depmod: Fix message printing before log_setup_kmod_log
  depmod: Add error message for bad version

Thanks very much for the patches. I commented on each of them
individually.  Could you send a v2 with the comments addressed?

For the cython patch, I'm not sure. I don't want the cython dependency
to be a one off since there are other things we ship prebuilt in
packages like the man pages. Maybe just stop shipping prebuilt stuff
in the distributed file like systemd did would be ok. Lennart, Kay,
did you had any problems with distributions due to this?
