Sure would be nice if the error message were more helpful as to the
cause.  The current behavior is a bit, ummm, cryptic...

Yes it is. I want to fix this but it requires overhauling some of the basic assumptions of the kernel module stuff and as such is tied up in my desire to
really fix module versions (as per my mail to arch@ a while back).

Which I forgot to reply to. For the record, I completely agree with your suggested change to module version semantics.
