Ah, so maybe this problem isn't limited to SMP kernels after all.  Well,
that should make it easier for me to debug, anyway...

I confirm getting these two lines in dmesg when trying to load this module
with 2.6.18-4-alpha-generic:

 module rsrc_nonstatic: Relocation overflow vs section 24
 i82365: Unknown symbol pccard_nonstatic_ops

Hmm, the relocation overflow here is in a different section than was
reported for the SMP problem, but perhaps there's a common root cause
nevertheless.
