Jon, can you please put > this onto your to-do list too? But the thing Rusty is also getting at (so I think) is that this might not be the way to fix the "problem". Perhaps using the rebinding bits in the kernel might be the best way to solve this in the longer term. I can fix both depmod and modprobe, but I would appreciate some more input :) Alternatives are a config option to only load the first match for now, and to load based on the Modules.order. Thoughts?
