Well, I got it to work, after enabling setting up sysfs and usbfs
in /etc/fstab (and dist-upgrading to 2.6.7-3).
It appears that part of the problem is that for some reason (which hopefully
someone can straighten out for me, modules don't seem to be autoloading. Did
I forget to install something? Things work well under 2.4, I just tried to
bring up an encrypted loopback filesystem and had to manually modprobe loop
and cryptoloop.

I'll look into this. It sounds like something I was looking for, since I have
all these gadgets (and loopback filesystems).
