Modules loading/unloading works just fine on my amd64. You will get the message. Specifically, sys/kern/link_elf.c will emit this message (because it can't handle an amd64 .ko) even though sys/kern/link_elf_obj.c will work ok. Basically, if link_elf.c tries the module first, you get this message. Since kernel object files are linked in alphabetical order, link_elf.c ends up always probing potential kernel modules first. -- John Baldwin
