This is bad practice. The /boot/modules directory was discussed long
time ago and meant to third-party modules as I remember. That's why
I haven't discarded it locally. Even if ports have rules to install
everything under ports-dir they should install kernel modules into
/boot/modules. Otherwise it's a sphagetti to manage.
The IMHO thing applies to this message also quite well.
