There is also one more bug: The packages seem to ignore version
suffixes, to modules built for a 2.6.14.5-darren end up in
/lib/modules/2.6.14.5 instead of /lib/modules/2.6.14.5-darren, which
of course makes them hard to find.

If Eduard is too busy, I can sponsor you as well. However, I do not
have too much clue about Linux TV as I am just getting started with
that topic. I have a Hauppauge WinTV PVR 350 available for testing,
though.
