Bruno, you can't use certain proprietary modules with debugging kernels. 
GPL symbols prevent you. In particular, the LOCKDEP stuff.

Frank mentioned[1] a viable option for Rawhide, but with Rawhide broken 
more often then not, it still isn't a viable option to use every day. I 
can't recommend it to Joe Schmoe if he wants Firefox 4.0 and he runs 
into broken deps or broken apps and goes off and uses Ubuntu or SuSE 
because of it.
