Hi Lance, What you have there looks like problems em8300 0.15.1 has with recent kernels, rather than a problem with module-assistant. I think 0.15.1 has problems with anything beyond 2.6.13 linux. (Which is why I'd like to have it updated ASAP. Unfortunately, I'm not a Debian dev, so I'm relying on Nicolas who seems to have been busy elsewhere, as of late.)
But looking at the changes I've made updating the em8300 package, it looks like I did have to do something to get m-a doing things properly. Anyway, m-a support is something that has been worked on, and will be in the next revision, along with a bunch of other fixes.
