The right way to handle the modules would be to add them to our kernel, so
they're always in sync. It's getting a bit late to add new kernel stuff for
Warty, though. If we want it in, it needs to happen now.

They probably need to be in sync with both the kernel and mol itself, so
I'm not sure moving them is a big win.

It should be added to Supported at least; it's a fantastic tool. We'd
need to upgrade the kernel modules for our kernels, though.
