I was having this same problem, even though I had both gcc-3.3 and gcc-3.4 installed. The problem was only in the link of /usr/bin/gcc. You should have gcc-3.4 installed (avvailable in etch), and make sure that the link at /usr/bin/gcc points to /usr/bin/gcc-3.4. Once that is done, modules will build against gcc 3.4 and you will be able to insert them without problem.
