Bug#363032: linux-image-2.6.16-1-686: 2.6.16-7 breaks module compat

[Richard Antony Burton <richardaburton@hotmail.com>]

Package: linux-image-2.6.16-1-686
Version: 2.6.16-7
Severity: important

After installing new 2.6.16-7 packages no custom modules would load, appears
module compatibility has been broken.
e.g.
kernel: bcm5700: disagrees about version of symbol struct_module

Module compat shouldn't be broken on a replacement kernel package, should this
kernel have been released as a new package (linux-image-2.6.16-2-686) instead?

Richard.
