I am (or rather, was :) running 1.99.12 with modules and kerneld.
Also configured the loop device as a module.
However, when I ran losetup, it always returned 'No such device'.
So, apparently, the loop module does not get autoloaded.
Instead, I have to explicitly modprobe loop to get it working.

A quick glance at loop.c shows that there apparently is no
support for kerneld in there. Was this done on purpose?

Cheers,
Michiel
