Again, I don't want to be alarmist but... I think there might be a build problem with the latest plus kernel:
[root@mfg-nyc-iscsi2 make]# rpm -qa | grep kernel | sort iscsitarget-kernel-smp-0.4.14-98_2.6.9_42.0.8.plus.c4 kernel-doc-2.6.9-42.0.10.plus.c4 kernel-ib-1.0-1 kernel-module-drbd-2.6.9-42.0.3.plus.c4smp-0.7.21-1.c4 kernel-module-drbd-2.6.9-42.0.8.plus.c4smp-0.7.23-1.c4 kernel-smp-2.6.9-42.0.10.EL kernel-smp-2.6.9-42.0.8.plus.c4 kernel-smp-devel-2.6.9-42.0.10.EL kernel-utils-2.4-13.1.83
Looks like the plus kernel dependencies got mixed up...

And it's gone and installed the standard kernel.

It just looks like you installed the standard kernel
This shows that the modules go into the normal place when the plus kernel is installed:

Also ... the naming of the plus smp kernel seems fine:
[buildsvn@build-i386 newkernel]$ rpm -qp --provides kernel-smp-2.6.9-42.0.10.plus.c4.x86_64.rpm | grep smp kernel-smp-x86_64 = 2.6.9-42.0.10.plus.c4 kABI(4.0smp.x86_64) = 0 kernel-smp = 2.6.9-42.0.10.plus.c4 ================================================================
Other than you do not have to 42.0.10.plus.c4smp kernel installed (but instead the standard 42.0.10.ELsmp), I am not sure what your question is.
