/etc/modules/default has _nothing_ whatsoever to do with modutils (or vice
versa). /etc/modules/default is called during boot from
/etc/rc.d/rc.modules. Other distros do something else (Debian uses
/etc/modules which contains the same info as /etc/modules/default), and RH
does pure dynamic loading.
modutils provides standard modules utilities which look at
/etc/modules.conf. Now Caldera has managed to break /etc/modules.conf
with idiotic directives that need to be removed, but they have nothing to
do with /etc/modules/default.
So there's nothing ass-backwards about Caldera's modutils. It's the same
as everyone else's.
