Hi,
  Ok further investigation into the LKM bug indicates that the problem is
with the link that modload performs. Several branches in the module appear
to be mis-relocated resulting in execution going haywire when the module
is initialised. This problem is not confined to modules > 64K, very simple
modules can be made to exhibit the problem.
I am not sure when this bug has been introduced, its a long time since I
played with LKM's but last time I did they were working. I'll continue to
investigate.

Cheers,
				Mark
