Problems with insmod & modprobe

We've had v1.0.0pre8 working for a while now with no problems. We had
used gcc 3.1.1 and I'm not sure what version of uClibc. At some point
in the last year, I became keeper of the development tools and built gcc
3.4.2 with uClibc 0.9.27 but we did not rebuild busybox. I wanted to add
support for udhcpd and so rebuilt busybox-1.0.0pre8 and now insmod and
modprobe appear to be broken. I've rebuilt using busybox-1.0.1 and
uClibc 0.9.28 but to no avail. The problem is that doing a modprobe or
an insmod, it almost appears as if they don't go through the
/lib/modules/uname -r directory structure. They tell me that the
modules aren't found. I can install the old busybox binary we have and
they load just fine. The old busybox binary is at least a year old and
we can't recreate a binary thats identical.
Anybody have any ideas? This, of course, is the last item needed in
this project and is driving me crazy.
