Error while compiling the kernel 3.3.1.

Hi I m using redhat 6 with kernel release
2.6.32-71.el6.i686

I have downloaded latest kernel 3.3.1 from kernel.org .


when i run make module_install i get below error.

Code:
# make modules_install

/usr/src/kernels/linux-3.3.1/scripts/depmod.sh: line 37: 11314 Killed                  "$DEPMOD" "$@" "$KERNELRELEASE"
make: *** [_modinst_post] Error 137

Highlighting 37th line in bold.

Code:
# cat /usr/src/kernels/linux-3.3.1/scripts/depmod.sh
#!/bin/sh
#
# A depmod wrapper used by the toplevel Makefile

if test $# -ne 2; then
        echo "Usage: $0 /sbin/depmod <kernelrelease>" >&2
        exit 1
fi
DEPMOD=$1
KERNELRELEASE=$2

if ! test -r System.map -a -x "$DEPMOD"; then
        exit 0
fi
# older versions of depmod require the version string to start with three
# numbers, so we cheat with a symlink here
depmod_hack_needed=true
tmp_dir=$(mktemp -d ${TMPDIR:-/tmp}/depmod.XXXXXX)
mkdir -p "$tmp_dir/lib/modules/$KERNELRELEASE"
if "$DEPMOD" -b "$tmp_dir" $KERNELRELEASE 2>/dev/null; then
        if test -e "$tmp_dir/lib/modules/$KERNELRELEASE/modules.dep" -o \
                -e "$tmp_dir/lib/modules/$KERNELRELEASE/modules.dep.bin"; then
                depmod_hack_needed=false
        fi
fi
rm -rf "$tmp_dir"
if $depmod_hack_needed; then
        symlink="$INSTALL_MOD_PATH/lib/modules/99.98.$KERNELRELEASE"
        ln -s "$KERNELRELEASE" "$symlink"
        KERNELRELEASE=99.98.$KERNELRELEASE
fi

set -- -ae -F System.map
if test -n "$INSTALL_MOD_PATH"; then
        set -- "$@" -b "$INSTALL_MOD_PATH"
fi
"$DEPMOD" "$@" "$KERNELRELEASE"
ret=$?

if $depmod_hack_needed; then
        rm -f "$symlink"
fi

exit $ret
