Cause as far as I could see, the kernel-devel package version didn't match the running kernel version. While your solution (re-link build) *might* work, if he's running a 2.6.12 kernel but builds against a 2.6.13 kernel source, nothing will work. I never use debuggers... for a single reason (Which relates to this problem) You tend to solve the symptoms (invalid/non-matching kernel source link) instead of solving the source of the problem.
