module-init-tools will move the respective tools from modutils out of the way
by renaming them to "*.modutils" 

Modules are now configured in /etc/modprobe.conf and /etc/modprobe.d/*, 
'update-modules' will build /lib/modules/modprobe.conf out of these.

When changing your 2.4.x config in /etc/modutils/* you now need to run 
'update-modules.modutils' to build /etc/modules.conf.
