Yes, as several people have pointed out. I *did* briefly make the
change so -q always returned "success", but had to revert it because
it caused infinite loops in some legitimate configurations (thanks to
Jamie Lokier for reporting this).
With the change to default to idemptent behavior (modprobe foo when
foo is already installed silently "succeeds" unless --first-time is
specified), the definition of -q can be safely changed to mean "ignore
this if you've never heard of it").
This is done in 3.0-pre6, now available.
BTW, if you had fairly complex modules.conf, you should regenerate
modprobe.conf for the 3.0 releases: some cases have changed.
Rusty.
