I see :-) Anyway: since yours is a kernel recompiled for those who "know what they're doing" and since setting up lm_sensors needs some knowledge, I think it would be nice to include all those modules in your distribution. Consider that sensors-detect script already knows which modules are dangerous and which ones are not and acts accordingly. Just a suggestion.
