modutils && m-i-t ( proposal nº2 )

[nestu]

Hi everyone,
Attached is a second proposal for these two modules. What 
has changed is that no symlinks are added anymore. Really 
what happens is that /lib/modutils/sbin or 
/lib/module-init-tools/{bin,sbin}
are added to the PATH, from profile.d/mod*.rc based on 
`uname -r`, as sofar suggested. Now that can seem a little 
dirty, I know, but it has an extra benefit: man's search 
path depends on PATH, so they are dynamically set too. Maybe 
you don't like the placement, or maybe the idea, but it is 
the easiest [working] solution I have found up to now. Each 
module has its own initscript now, too.

Jasper: renaming the binaries with -2.{4,6} would be a bit 
painful, since not only would the install in BUILD have to 
change, but I would have had to create symlinks for each man 
too. Keeping them separate in 2 different dirs is cleaner, 
as far as I have been able to see.

We can always choose a better placement, if you ppl think so.

CU,
Jaime ;)))
