It took a while, but I have verified that 2.6.30.10 works without any message, and 2.6.31 has the error message (but otherwise seems to run ok). The hex codes are different, but the function names match and are in the same places.
Does it have to be git bisect, or will trying the 2.6.31rc[1-9] be enough instead? The Documentation/BUG-HUNTING does not give detailed enough instructions for me to do the bisect thing.
