This was recently discussed on -arch, and was brought into -current by Warner Losch <imp@FreeBSD.org> in rev. 1.172 of src/sys/modules/Makefile from 2001/04/02 08:52:05; if there is a MODULES_OVERRIDE variable (defined either in /etc/make.conf or on the 'make' command line), it overrides the list of modules to build. This variable can - and probably should ;) - contain second-level module names, too - e.g. sound/pcm or syscons/daemon.
