insmod works fine on ia64 as well. The problem they tripped over was that
ksymoops running native on ia64 and using /proc/ksyms failed, while a
running ksymoops on ia32 (cross debug mode) with ia64 debug info and
System.map worked fine.
ismod uses the descriptor address (which ia64 currently puts in
/proc/ksyms), while ksymoops requires the code address.
