It took me a while to work that one out originally, however try adding -f
:-)

insmod -f /lib/modules/nfs-2.0.1.o

bash-2.02# insmod
Usage:
insmod [-fkmopsvVxX] [-o name] module [[sym=value]...]

module Filename of a loadable kernel module (*.o)
-f, --force Force loading under wrong kernel version
...
