Ok, I found the actual bugzilla in my firefox history:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=544901
and a little better explanation here:
http://www.codemonkey.org.uk/2009/12/10/annoying-kernel-packaging-bug/
Now, while there are no actual references here to the missing modules problem,
I somehow understood (googling around) that those messages are the consequence
of deltarpm failing to deal with the initramfs file correctly.
You may be seeing a completely separate and unrelated issue, but I would bet
that your case is the same as mine.
HTH, :-)
