} A "sane arch" (for purposes of this PR) is an arch that does not need
} options INSECURE (i.e. for working X support).
} 
} In a non-INSECURE kernel we can not load file system modules when parsing
} /etc/fstab, since securelevel is already preventing that.

     Has this been tested?  sys/kern/kern_module.c:module_listener_cb()
explicitly allows autoloaded modules.  Of course, there is enough stuff
going on in kauth that something else might be disallowing it.
