Could be the modules don't match the kernel.  gcc-3.3 bombs out with an 
impressive compiler error (see below) on i386, thus the i386 packages 
all are a bit outdated (kvm-17 from dec last year IIRC).  If an update 
kernel was released meanwhile the kvm modules and the kernel have 
different versions ...

cheers,
