I seem to recall that memory allocation features where changed in 2.6.9
Might be related. Also note that is a kernel patched by a distribution,
which is to say that the memory api may not be the same as a vanilla-2.6.9
on which any source code conditional tests would have been based.
The answer is probably to either run a generic kernel with the generic openSSL
code or get your openSSL source from the distributor of that patched kernel.
