Why not put the modprobe call(s) inside the application startup script in 
/etc/init.d? Just add the commands to the start() function of the script 
that starts the application. If you wanted to get fancy, you could even 
rmmod them in the stop() function section of the script. For example, 
here is the start() function of crond, with 3 modprobe calls added:
start() {
        echo -n $"Starting $prog: "
# let's load some modules!
        /sbin/modprobe foo
        /sbin/modprobe bar
        /sbin/modprobe foo_bar
# end module loading
        daemon crond
        RETVAL=$?
        echo
        [ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && touch /var/lock/subsys/crond
        return $RETVAL
}
