Can you send me (off-list) the .o + .ko files
for one of the failing modules.
I like to see what the section contains - or at least the flags.
I do not know on top of my head the commands so
with the .o faile available I expect to figure it out.

I obviously hope the fix also apply for powerpc - but we will
see.
