Richard:

You could try to build a vanilla kernel just so you can see how it works 
and to get an example for where the driver build works.  (You don't have 
to boot such a kernel.)  Then you could compare the two cases and figure 
out what's wrong with the build you really do want to perform.

Other than that I don't have any other suggestions.  The missing "modules" 
target that it is complaining about is a standard target in the kernel 
build system.  All that the driver build is trying to do is hand over 
control to the kernel build system so that the pvrusb2 driver can be built 
as a module.  From what you pasted, the pvrusb2 driver part of the build 
worked just fine and the failure happened after it dropped into the kernel 
build system.  So from where I'm sitting it looks like your kernel source 
tree is somehow incorrect.
