It seems I can break out of this with ^C, but that leaves a couple of
modprobe processes still busy-looping.

The problem seems to be related to sound modules, as the processes left
around were both 'modprobe snd-ioctl32' and the real sound driver
(snd-hda-intel) was not loaded.

I suspect that this configuration line from
/etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf somehow triggers the bug:

# Cause optional modules to be loaded above generic modules
install snd /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd && { /sbin/modprobe --quiet 
snd-ioctl32 ; /sbin/modprobe --quiet snd-seq ; }
