I looked at kmod.c in jaunty's linux-source-2.6.28 package.

The code of interest has been re-written.  The corresponding code seems to
be in call_usermodehelper_exec() now.  That new routine correctly saves off
the return value before freeing the sub_info structure.

So I believe this bug does NOT affect jaunty and can be 
closed/removed/whatever.
