It's worth nothing that I've filed a separate bug (number 288675) which covers the exact same symptoms, on udev-based systems.

Essentially, nvidia.(k)o is loaded automatically when something pokes /dev/nvidia*, but with udev or devfs, these /dev entries do not exist without the nvidia module already being loaded - thus, they cannot autoload anymore. The udev people blame the hotplug people, the hotplug people refuse to get involved.
