The cleaner and recommended (see recent make help) way is to use make -s:

$ make O=build -s kernelrelease
3.18.0-rc1+

no further processing is needed.

Can you please apply this patch?

Thanks,
Michal

Subject: [PATCH] ktest: Use make -s kernelrelease

The previous tail -1 broke with commit 7ff525712acf ("kbuild: fake the
"Entering directory ..." message more simply")
