Well, I'm not sure anything other has attached. I recognized that kldloading a module doesn't attach anymore where it formerly had. One example is the nvidia driver, another one is ng_ubt. It gets only detected if I load it in loader.conf. I had this problem ever since I tried 7-current (almost a year ago). I hadn't seen the problem with RELENG_6 on the same hardware (ng_ubt on one machine and nvidia on another one) before.
