No. And it looks like this is the real issue then. (Thank you for 
reading between the lines and figuring out what was really wrong).

I compile the module apart from the kernel, so kvm support was not 
enabled when compiling the kernel. In 2.6.24, the PREEMPT_NOTIFIER 
option is not user selectable in make config, but is selected for you 
when kvm support is selected. IMO, this makes building modules apart 
from kernel source unadvised; however, there seems to be no alternative 
with the pace of kvm development relative to the kernel release schedule.
