If that is the case, it sounds like you have old drivers installed that 
are being loaded instead of new ones that you are trying to use.  You 
can use insmod with the absolute path of the module you are trying to 
load (./zaptel.ko and ./wct4xxp/wct4xxp.ko, relative to the zaptel 
source directory).  If you look in /lib/modules/your-kernel-version/misc 
or /lib/modules/you-kernel-version/extra, you can remove all the zaptel 
modules and drivers that you see, and do a `make install` again in your 
zaptel source directory.  That should purge the old modules.
