I sent a similar patch based on your older one to the Gentoo maintainers
a couple of days ago. Did you notice how the module reference counting
(MOD_INC/MOD_DEC) seems to have moved out of their wrapper into the
binary module (possible GPL violation) or removed completely (oops
waiting to happen)? I wonder why.

To be safe, I added the refcounting back where it was in previous
versions. Anyway, thanks for making these patches.
