It's new hotplug scripts. Put modules you do not want to be automatically
loaded even if they think they have hardware/facilities to bind to into
/etc/hotplug/blacklist

I, for example, have evbug, joydev, tsdev and eth1394 there.

Greg, any chance adding evbug to the default version of hotplug package?

Of note: evbug is in /etc/hotplug/blacklist in the Debian hotplug package by 
default, with a comment in said file about it being debian specific.
