Right, that's the intended and documented way to do it.

I don't see that this is a reasonable expectation; it has never worked
in any previous release, and the documentation explicitly says to do the
other.  Also, at least some of the proposed forms of a module facility
would have the effect of overriding any such approach anyhow.

Again, I'm not for whacking around the procedures for dealing with
contrib each time we make a release.  We should change it once when we
have a shot at getting it right.
