It's logically consistent to make it implicit, and cuts out some
code in the unload path.
How's this?
This looks fine to me.
How hard would it be to make this completely consistent in that
no module code is ever invoked with modcount == 0? By this I mean
keeping the implicit reference after modload succeeds, and then
calling ->cleanup() is valid once the count drops to '1'.
