It's not a technical bug, but a social bug. It means the loadable module
didn't specify its license (I guess another error would occur if the
license it specifies isn't compatible with the GPL).
According to this post:
http://www.linuxtv.org/mailinglists/linux-dvb/2001/10-2001/msg00135.html,
you specify your license in your module w/ an already-defined macro like
this: MODULE_LICENSE("GPL");
