Use "file" to identify the type of data contained in that file, and use 
"rpm -Vf" to verify it.  If either result doesn't look right, reboot and 
fsck your filesystem.

# file /lib/modules/2.6.32-220.17.1.el6.x86_64/kernel/net/ipv6/ipv6.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.32-220.17.1.el6.x86_64/kernel/net/ipv6/ipv6.ko: ELF 
64-bit LSB relocatable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped
# rpm -Vf /lib/modules/2.6.32-220.17.1.el6.x86_64/kernel/net/ipv6/ipv6.ko
