Where do you get modversions-smp.h from? Standard kernels do not build
that file, it might be a hangover from your distribution. Any chance
that you are booting an old kernel with your new modules? 2.2.14 SMP
and MODVERSIONS works fine for me.
If all else fails, save your .config, make mrproper, restore .config,
make oldconfig, make dep clean bzImage modules. Current Makefiles do
not cope correctly with turning MODVERSIONS on and off under some
circumstances, make mrproper cleans the crud out and starts again.
