Replying to myself .. it's stopped working! I tried this yesterday on a 7250 
and a 7260 and it 
was fine.  Today, using the same module, locks up the 7250 completely. It never 
returns from 
the insmod command:

$ insmod nvram
Using /lib/modules/2.4.26-ts11/kernel/drivers/char/nvram.o

The md5sum is the same; I recompiled it to an identical module.  Any thoughts?  
I have 
already sent this to someone who requested it, and I feel really guilty now!
