You know we don't all use Linux (or not only)... :D

That's one thing I like in BeOS and Haiku, modules just can't link to 
others, they are forced to know which they want, ask the kernel to load 
them by name (which includes version info), and use the function 
pointer provided.
This complicates things when porting OSS for ex, but it's much cleaner 
as it forces to use a defined API, and since modules know their 
dependancies, no need for insmod or a udev to hide insmod, it just 
works.

But you are free to use Linux anyway :)

François.
