With some moderate fussing, the RedFlag kernel image+modules pacakge
has been converted to
linux-image-2.6.21.0-22_2.6.21.0-22_i386.deb
which is version matched to the agrmodem+agrserial drivers in
agere-driver-1.0-10dd.i386.rpm .
The drivers agrmodem.ko and agrserial.ko have been incorporated into
the the package, which can be installed with:
$ sudo dpkg -i linux-image*.deb
Upon reboot, the will be a choice to use the new 2.6.21.0-22 kernel

On my otherwise Ubuntu Gutsy system there was no problem with bootup
under the kernel:
$ uname -r
  2.6.21.0-22
and I am online with it through wireless right now.

While I lack the target modem hardware, merely loading the drivers
does not manifest harm my System (see below)

The implication of the warning: Symbol usb_deregister is being used by
a non-GPL module, which will not be allowed in the future
is that the drivers in this format will fail for 2.6.25 are later
kernels.  This problem has already been encountered with the Smartlink
slusb driver.

So for those of you who wish to have 11c11040 chipset support on High
Definition Audio cards,
please test on report back about functionality.
