Turns out that Bryan Drewery hit it (in a different thread):

Given that hint, in my r300994 source tree, I first did:

cd /usr/src && make cleanworld

then re-built everything again (while Spouse and I were at a neighbor's

On reboot, everything looks good, and linux64.ko (and nvidia.ko) are
loaded:

Sorry for the false alarm.
