Wasn't causing a problem, but I wrote a script awhile back that parses
modules.alias looking for exact matches (doesn't do any fnmatch stuff,
which might show more overlaps). Attached so you can see where this is
coming from.

Mainly I wrote it to make sure we didn't have any module overlap
(hostap/orinico kind of stuff), but it catches same module matching as
well.
