Comment(by gnu):

 I made the attached patch to modutils-3.3-pre3.  It applies without
 trouble to modutils-3.3-pre11.  I don't know what version of modutils
 Fedora and/or OLPC are using; I wasn't willing to sit through yum to find
 out, when "apt-get sources module-init-utils" was done in seconds.  I
 tested this on Ubuntu 7.04, including forking hundreds of racing processes
 (yes MODULENAME | xargs -P 500 -n 2 ./modprobe).  The patch is
 straightforward, and should be suitable for upstream.
