I would try make clean/make/make install.

also add tor2 to the black list and remove it from any zaptel init stuff.

Finally once your systems up (note asterisk wont be) try loading the
module with insmod.

If it panics this may give you a better opurtunity to catch the output
then probably contact digium support and see if they know of any
issues and send the dumps.
