I didn't try such a build, but the source looks right. Could it be that
you've built the modules for a different configuration than the rest of
the kernel ? Maybe you need to
make clean && make bzImage modules modules_install

Also, be sure that you're not loading modules from a previous build, e.g.
you may wigh to
rm -rf /lib/modules/2.2.14-5.0

That should work, though. Maybe you need to rebuild "tc". Also check
the usual gotchas, i.e.
 - the right version of "tc" is indeed the one you're running
 - you're indeed running the kernel you've built
 - /usr/src/linux points to that kernel
