i386 defaults to building bzImage' (as well as modules) if you just type make'. This patch mirrors that on ia64 by building `compressed'.

Why not kill this 'compressed' indirection.
If people want to build vmlinux.gz, then let people specify that. Much less confusing.
The build should also write out the full path to the location of the kernel - no reason for people to guess the directory.
Sorry - no patch this time :-(
