[BusyBox] Problem compiling 0.60.1...external code required!?!

Update:
After a bit more digging, I found I can get everything to compile properly
using only busybox code if I comment out the test for __GNU_LIBRARY__ < 5 in
libbb/module_syscalls.c

I'm still not sure *why* I need to do this, but it works (and makes the
binary about 5K smaller than linking with the library from modutils).

Details on my C library:

__GNU_LIBRARY__ 6
__GLIBC__       2
__GLIBC_MINOR__ 0

Again, this is a Debian 2.1 (slink) environment...
