Hi,

yes, it looks the same.

ipsec: Unknown symbol ipcomp_xform_funcs
ipsec: Unknown symbol sysctl_ipsec_debug_ipcomp
ipsec: Unknown symbol skb_compress
ipsec: Unknown symbol skb_decompress

The module with 4,5mb is working correctly.

I dont't know what stripping is and I don't have much knowledge about 
building rpms.

If I build the module with an old spec file from Dag Wieers, it also 
works and it's about 4,5mb.
