I have just found out that there was an incompatible change to struct
usb_device_id during 2.4.0-prerelease :(((.  That means that all
versions of depmod will break on kernel 2.4.0 if you have any modules
that use MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(usb).  Incompatible changes to an ABI
structure without notification immediately prior to a major kernel
release, yech!

If you have usb modules then stay on kernel 2.4.0-prerelease or compile
usb without modules or wait until I can test and release modutils
2.4.1.  The usb hotplug utilities will also have to change to handle
the new table layout.
