As far as I can tell, /etc/modutils/0keep should not be executable. It belongs to the modutils package, which itself is depreciated for 2.6 kernels and has been superceded by module-init-tools.

Etch's kernel is at 2.6.18.5.

Not really, you seem to be running something in between Sarge and Etch. I would fully upgrade to Etch before doing anything else. Then you can install module-assistant and it should do all the wlan-ng-related work for you. ("module-assistant prepare" followed by "module-assistant auto-install linux-wlan-ng".)
