"There seems to be a slight problem with the "mod_strcmp" function in
modprobe.c, it scans for the first occurence of the module name in the
"mod_path" variable and expects it to be the last path element. ie
/lib/modules/2.4.22-debug/kernel/fs/vfat in my example. The comparison
will always fail if mod_path contains another substring matching the
module name."

"Although William Barsse's patch fixed mod_strcmp for 2.4 kernels, there
was a remaining problem which prevented it from working for me. I've
just tracked it down - when you enable kernel 2.6 module support it
hard-wired the extension to .ko instead of checking at runtime like the
other places where 2.4 differs from 2.6. The attached patch fixes this
for me."
