Normaly unresolved symbols are a result of using an old module, (from a
previous compile), together with a newly compiled module, are you sure you
really (re)made all modules.?
There is a kernel option for this perpouse which can help in most
circumstancies, read
/usr/src/linux/Documentation/Configure.help and look for;
CONFIG_MODVERSIONS

depmod -a should create a file called modules.dep which resides in
/lib/modules/$version_number, this file then contains any dependant .o files
needed by a certain driver, so simply typing "modprobe <module io=address>"
should load all dependant modules.
So if depmod -a has not been used a situation which you describe could
result.
I would go as far as to say that the datestamps on msnd_classic.o and
other modules differ, altho i could be wrong as i dont have that sort of
sound modules here on my systems.
