OK, this may be the solution: Because typing 'depmod' returned a 'command not found' I recognized that my current $PATH was different from /etc/profile . So with 'source /etc/profile' the missing directories were added again, this seems to be even permanent up to now. Afterwards I could upgrade the kernel without any problems.

With the next reboot after today's System Update (which included updates for pkg's linux and nvidia) the kernel was not able the partitions anymore and froze. Having the system restored with a liveCD and chroot I found in pacman.log dozens of lines like this

Because no one else reported this here it seems to be specific to my installation. Did the modules move to another directory with 3.4.2-2 oder did I miss a package in the past ?
I also saw this. It seems to have sorted itself out, but I had previously relinked depmod, which had previously effectively been linked to /sbin/usr/bin/kmod, as follows:
graton% ls -al $(which depmod) lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Jun 8 21:53 /sbin/depmod -> /usr/bin/kmod
So you got the same errors, relinked depmod and ran pacman -S again, right (otherwise you should have gotten the same bugy kernel image like me) ?
How did you "relink" depmod in details ? Or: where has the symlink has to be placed ? Sounds like it could be the one-command-solution for me already. :)
Notice that the link is absolute rather than relative. As a precaution, I ran:
graton# pacman -S linux warning: linux-3.4.2-2 is up to date -- reinstalling
And it was fine.
