Yes, Apple has made changes in 10.1 that make kernel modules
incompatible. I have fixed those problems in the 0.35 branch and
current, but we haven't made a release that contains those fixes.

You also need to give the argument --disable-mmap to configure, since
mmap in 10.1 is broken.

You can test the 0.35.6pre8 snapshot:
ftp://ftp.stacken.kth.se/pub/arla/snap/arla-0.35.6pre8.tar.gz

Also, you should run "/usr/sbin/disktool -r" instead of the old
disktool command. The old disktool command was just a guess from my
side, since Apple didn't document what had to be done.

Don't try to use a kernel module that you compiled on 10.0 on 10.1. It
doesn't work.
