Ahhh, I suspect that  "-DMODVERSIONS" is the critical option.

I'll have to check out how to automatically add it to the 2.4 compile.
Under 2.2 and earlier I did 

#if defined(CONFIG_MODVERSIONS) && defined(MODULE) && ! defined(MODVERSIONS)
#define MODVERSIONS
#endif
#include <linux/version.h>
#include <linux/module.h>
#if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < 0x20300  &&  defined(MODVERSIONS)
#include <linux/modversions.h>
#endif

Does changing this to 
...
#if defined(MODVERSIONS)  ||  defined(CONFIG_MODVERSIONS)
...
allow dropping  -DMODVERSIONS
