Ugh. It's possible that some stuff has been already backported for our
3.4 kernel.

I don't believe you will as everyone's supposed to get backported

IIRC you can configure backports so it'll only produce a specific set
of drivers - that might mean that it doesn't try to duplicate symbols
already in our tree.
