I've added support for 64-bit modules in 2.4; the necessary patches for
modutils 2.4.21 and 2.4.27 can be found on ftp.linux-mips.org in
/pub/linux/mips/modutils/.

The 2.6 module code is a complete rewrite; it uses module-init-tools which
don't contain any architecture dependencies and therefore didn't need to
be changed; instead all the relocation business is done in the kernel
itself and those patches are already in CVS.

 Excellent.  Are you going to submit the changes to Keith?

Of course.  But I guess I should give it a few days for testing; this is
still too fresh.
