Versioned module symbols broken for PPC?

From: Samuel Rydh <hidden>

The support for versioned symbols seems to be broken.
After a mrproper recompile, /proc/ksyms contains entries
like

	c0148940 nf_hook_slow_R__ver_nf_hook_slow

which obviously is wrong. (This is with Ben's tree,
but I've seen it in the BK tree too. I think
this problem appeared in 2.4.5-something).

At a closer investigation it appears the distribution I'm currently
using has a broken modutils package (/sbin/genksym is missing).

What distro are you running?  They work fine on debian/sid, but YDL2
shipped w/ a broken modutils (need to yup update).
