This is probably because you are trying to load an old a.out KLM
with an ELF kernel. What does this command say?
file /lkm/linux_mod.o
If it says something like '...: FreeBSD/i386 object not stripped',
then you might just try loading the KLD version instead with:
kldload /modules/linux.ko
KLMs have been replaced with KLDs.
