I ran across a little problem w/ modload.
it seems that modload can't load a module
with a . in it's path, you get an error
like:
(ttyp0@jake)$ sudo /sbin/modload -o linux_mod -elinux_mod ./linux_mod.o
modload: module object must end in .o
I changed a strchr() to a strrchr() and now
it works. Does this break anything?
Here's the trivial patch.
