It does get loaded on demand if the drive is powered off and then back on. So I guess linux-usb-devel would be my next stop? I have things "working" by putting a script that loads usb_storage in /etc/sysconfig/modules/. It still isn't ready when the system tries to automatically mount it from fstab, but a mount command in /etc/rc.local works. Ugly, but it will do for now.
