Module utils problems... WTFM

I've upgraded to modutils-2.1.121, which seems to fix the problem I was having
with insmod segfaulting.

It doesn't make insmod work when it's strace'd, but then as the only reason I
was strace'ing it was to find out why it segfaulted, I don't particularly care.

If it was documented, perhaps I would have tried the new version of modutils
earlier...
