Upon reflection, that was the symptom of a different problem entirely
(I had initially forgotten to install the modules built in the kernel
rebuild, and the old usbd modules were causing a hang on references
to usb0, not eth0.  Sorry.)  The actual symptom was that the modules
would load, but eth0 wouldn't come into being.  Doing a
"modprobe -r spectrum_cs" followed by a "modprobe spectrum_cs" caused
a segfault in modprobe (but the module would load, oddly).

Sorry more the misreporting.  :-(
