PATCH 1/1 fix headers_install for x86-64.

A bug in headers_install for ARCH=x86_64 yields an asm/ directory full of files all of which are using the same #ifdef guard, "__ASM_STUB_" with no postfix. So the second and later asm files #included in the same C file (often through standard headers like ioctl.h) yields no symbols.

There's a missing semicolon after the assignment to FNAME (so the assignment of STUBDEF on the next line doesn't see the value), and it helps to export variables before calling a subshell.
