I suspect that your module-ini-tools/kmod are built without support for
compressed modules. One method to verify this is to run it against ldd :

$ ldd /sbin/modprobe
        linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007fff918ed000)
        libkmod.so.2 => /lib64/libkmod.so.2 (0x00007ff9317f1000)
        libpthread.so.0 => /lib64/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007ff9315d5000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x00007ff931214000)
        liblzma.so.5 => /lib64/liblzma.so.5 (0x00007ff930ff2000)
        libz.so.1 => /usr/lib64/libz.so.1 (0x00007ff930ddd000)
        /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007ff931a06000)

As you can see, mine depends on liblzma and libz so it was clearly built
with support for both of them.

Regards,
Willy
