With the latest -CURRENT, it should now be possible to load kernel
modules on the amd64 platform from /boot/loader.conf or the loader
prompt just like on other platforms. Let me know if you notice any
problems.

Assuming there are no major issues uncovered, the changes to support
this will hopefully get merged into RELENG_5 before the release.
