No, I don't have any 4.x kernels installed on that system, just 3.16 Ubuntu kernel.
I assume your wild guess was that if I had /lib/modules/4.1.0/build & source as that was the kernel I was building?

Also, so you know, the issue isn't related to the 4.1.0 kernel, I can reproduce this on 4.0.x, 3.19.x and 3.18.x.
Probably others also, but those are the ones I've tried.
On all of them when I compile on Ubuntu, there will be a build and source softlink in the lib/modules/version/ directory
of BUILDROOT.
