That's how it always has been done. But someone simply needs to do a
diff like this and your problem should vanish, as kmodtool then should
pick up the latest kernel that is available:

http://cvs.rpmfusion.org/viewvc/rpms/buildsys-build-rpmfusion/devel/buildsys-build-rpmfusion-kerneldevpkgs-current?root=free&r1=1.18&r2=1.19&view=patch

Doing that in the RPM Fusion buildsys bears the risk that different
builders or builds see different latest kernels.
