Well mine is different. I never select mod versions in the kernel (Due to the webcam I own and kernel testing)
I have mod versions enabled on three 2.6 kernel machines and all seem to work perfectly. All are running Debian testing/unstable and using gcc version 3.3.3 20040125. The only one I have access to at the moment is using module-init-tools 3.0-pre9-1.
Well the term 'if it works, it works' comes to mind ;)
On two of the machines I built the kernel on that machine and installed it directly, i.e. doing:

Seeing that you use lilo there.. ever tried GRUB? I like that more than lilo ;)
I did have some problems with early 2.6 kernels and ACPI on my laptop which would happily lock up shortly after logging in to it. The solution at the time was to tell the kernel not to trust APCI for PCI interrupt routing with append="pci=noacpi" in the lilo.conf file.
I was using 2.5.60+ onwards on my old x86 laptop back then. It was nice but kept freezing when I used the cd burner (Which was fixed after 2 hours researching on google on my painful dialup back then).
