Synopsis: Modules are initialized twice at startup. State-Changed-From-To: open-closed State-Changed-By: marc State-Changed-When: Mon Jun 1 15:55:49 PDT 1998 State-Changed-Why: Modules are supposed to be initialized twice, and they have been for a long time and will be for the forseeable future in the 1.x code.
I suspect your confusion comes from some third-party patch you applied to your 1.2.x code that makes initialization only happen once. Note that doing so can break some modules that rely on it happening twice.
