[uClibc] [buildroot] Insmod fails on kernel 2.4

Hello,
This is not a bug report (I don't think there's a bug), but a question.
Yesterday, I tried to load a simple kernel module (a one with just
init_module, cleanup_module, init_module calling only printk). To
generate my root filesystem, of course I used buildroot. It was
generated with linux kernel headers 2.6.8. My box was running kernel 2.4.19.
When trying to insmod the module, I had a "Unresolved symbol printk"
(loading a more complex module gives more messages).
I thought there was a backward compatibility and that insmod compiled
with linux kernel headers 2.6.8.0 would work with a kernel 2.4.x. As it
didn't work, I recompiled all my toolchain and the tools of my root
filesystem using linux kernel headers 2.4.25 (the one available with
buildroot).
When trying to insmod, I still have the message "Unresolved symbol printk".
Any idea of what's wrong ? I'm sure I did something wrong, but can't
find what.
BTW, can you please look at my fakeroot-version-patch, and
boa-strip-problem patch ?
Thanks,
Thomas
