Grrr, my patch makes another problem about loading kernel module.

I tried to load umodem.ko by hand with kernel which have compiled-in
uhci and usb drivers.  Then I got an error like following.

  # kldload umodem
  module_register: module usb/uhub already exists!
  linker_file_sysinit "usb.ko" failed to register! 17
  kldload: can't load umodem: Exec format error

Hum, this is different from CURRENT's behavior.
I think in-kernel loader/linker should be fixed first.
