MODULES_WITH_WORLD build option changes installation dir for modules
to /boot/modules. One just have to move old modules from /boot/kernel
to /boot/modules manually if he set MODULES_WITH_WORLD to make sure
there won't be stale copies (and move them back if unset MODULES_WITH_WORLD).
If this (undocumented) rule is applied, there won't be problems with
modules.
