I believe I ran into a similar problem, but with the older 2.6.38 kernel -- (re)installing nvidia-173 wouldn't build the kernel module. It turns out it needs the linux-headers for that particular kernel, to build :p. I believe that's a bug in nvidia-173 -- failing to install the linux- headers as a dependency? I didn't try reinstalling nvidia-current... but I'm guessing if that works, it does have the proper dependencies?
