"module framework". the latter is generic enough to

Do not not look for modules in the current working directory first. This is
...
to prevent from accidentally loading ./module.kmod when we actually wanted to
load module from the system module area.
To load a module from a filesystem path, the module name must contain at
least on path separator character (/), to load a module from the system
module areas, the name must not contain a path separator character:
modload ./mymod.kmod # loads mymod.kmod from the curren directory
modload mymod # loads mymod.kmod from the system module area

Add rump client support for module utilities. It should be noted
...
that while modstat and modunload and builtin modules work exactly
the same as in the host case, modload loads file system kernel
modules from the rump kernel namespace. By default, archs which
have rump support for the kernel kernel ABI have the host module
directory mapped into the rump kernel namespace at the same location
(/stand/...). Therefore, if the *host* module directory is populated,
"rump.modload foo" will work as expected. Otherwise, RUMP_MODULEBASE
can be used to point to the module directory.
