But the lkm will run with -current sources as of just a few days ago! It is
tres cool to be able to run color with a -current kernel.

If you can, I'd suggest modifying lkm.conf in the source tree to make it
clearer how to install things. The present one isn't very helpful, at least
to the clueless. Maybe slight changes to the lkm.conf man page would be the
place for this. An example might do it.

I notices that there are some other modules in /usr/lkm/  Are these known
to work? Are they of any value?
