For some reason I don't get /proc/ksyms file with 2.5 kernels I compile, and
that causes rc.sysinit to set /proc/sys/kernel/modprobe to /bin/true. What
option enables /proc/ksyms creation?

None. /proc/ksyms is gone. Fix initscript to not touch
/proc/sys/kernel/modprobe, I see no reason why it should touch it unless
you want to kill modprobe functionality - and then it should depend on
some configuration setting and not on existence of /proc/ksyms.

You need to modify rc.sysinit. ksyms is gone - test /proc/modules which
is probably what the script should always have done
