That is the point of the current bsd.kmod.mk file - it does a best-effort attempt to grab the ../...../conf/kmod.mk file that goes along with the tree. The bug is that the sys/modules directory wasn't expected to get deeper before it died and the rather cheap and nasty hack to find the conf/ kmod.mk file didn't go up enough. Apart from that one file, we can make changes in the sys/ tree and it is automatically kept in sync with the rest of sys/.
