Having compiled my kernel with LKM included (yes, I'm sure; modstat
returns, obviously without any modules right now... but modstat would
return an error if LKM weren't enabled, no?), I had really hoped the
examples in /usr/share/lkm would work. But they don't:

cygnus:syscall/module# uname -a                                            [57]

*** Error code 9

Stop.

Is this a macppc thing?
