Package: kmod
Version: 5-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,
The version 5 of kmod forks tenth of time to attempt to load one module.
Notwithstanding I miss the point (does anything need a module loaded 40 times 
per milliseconds ?)
it render a box nearly unusable. This is with a custom kernel (I have been 
workign on a few kernel
patches but currently am on vanilla). Should happens also on debian ones as for 
example loading snd-hda-intel
trigger the load of snd which loads snd-seq. Here I have no snd-seq-oss (I did 
not build it) so this fork
forever happens while modprobe snd-seq. But it also happens because snd-ioctl32 
is not there and
I have been unable to find this module in the i686 conf. So it might well 
happens to all i386
users.

Reverting to libkmod1 and kmod 3-1 fixed the issue. I now get "Fatal: Module 
snd-seq-oss" messages but no
more fork bombs.

Best regards
Alban
