The idea was basically to compile module stuff always as a module and
put the modules that should be 'built-in' into the kernel-image and let
the module-code link them into the kernel at boot time automatically in
the right order, as the required symbols become visible.

But thats a rather intrusive change and I am not sure the benefits
outweight the conversion cost.
