Livna ndiswrapper and 16K stack kernels

Just for the halibut (and because I'm a masochist) I decided to see if
I could get my Linksys WPC54G ver.2 wireless card running on my
Toshiba Tecra 8000 under FC5. Again.

It turns out that the thing crashes when using the stock kernel
(2.6.16-1.2080_FC5). So, muttering all the way, I pulled in the
Linuxant 16K stack kernel, 2.6.16-1.2080_FC5.stk16. The Livna
ndiswrapper RPM (ndiswrapper-1.13-1.lvn5) installs fine on
it. However, it refuses to insert itself:

[root at teckla ~]# modprobe ndiswrapper
FATAL: Error inserting ndiswrapper (/lib/modules/2.6.16-1.2080_FC5.stk16/extra/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper.ko): Invalid module format
