Note that a fix using MODULE_NAME() _will_ break the current semantics of some modules: - we (really) should enforce everyone to have a MODULE_NAME (can we get a default out of __FILE_NAME__ with some tricky macro??) - some already have a prefix encoded into their arguments (isapnp springs into my mind) - those will have to be ripped off - and it "breaks" backward-compatibility, as the prefixes are not always like "isapnp_"
now, well if its easy, I'll look into it.
