any chance to share your .config ? x86-64's defconfig, plus Michal
branch merged on top of the tip of your tree, plus the following patch
removing the SUBLEVEL:

diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile
index 72c0e32..5c75864 100644
--- a/Makefile
+++ b/Makefile
@@ -1,6 +1,6 @@
 VERSION = 3
 PATCHLEVEL = 0
-SUBLEVEL = 0
+SUBLEVEL =
 EXTRAVERSION = -rc2
 NAME = Sneaky Weasel

install is fine for me. What bugs me is that "git grep '\.temp'" in
that tree does not return anything relevant.

Thanks,
 - Arnaud
