[..] module-init-tools falls back to modutils if it finds it runs on old kernel. Why do not you simply try and remove modutils if you believe it is not needed instead arguing about things that you do not actually know? If you really want to use them, get packages from http://supermount-ng.sf.net/mdk-25/ Packages in cooker have problems and some tools won't run correctly.
