For the archive: the problem was due to the linux headers used when compiling don't match the effective kernel version. In my case (Debian system) I had installed linux-headers-2.6.22-3 and running a kernel 2.6.22-2, that was apparently sufficient to get a version symbol mismatch. Updated kernel and headers to 2.6.26 and now I can compile and modprobe them safely.
