The conditional stuff just isn't there yet because there is no urgent presure right now (that will start with the 2.7 fork) and everyone is busy with other stuff. I'm sure it is possible to convince rusty to merge that in some form (but maybe it looks different from what mu do today). 2.4 support likely wouldn't happen through, but I don't consider that a problem. [...] The configuration likely will move away from module tools anyway. hotplug, udev, ... will take over that part. The insmod options will stay, aliases probably too but will not be used that much, pre/post install scripts at least partly will be taken over from hotplug. [...] We have fully separate trees, so this is no issue for us. Real development happens in the new 2.6 tree only through.
