No.  I have tried it both ways.  Compiled in kernel and *NOT* in 
loader.conf.  And *NOT* in kernel and load  geom_stripe.ko from 
loader.conf.  Same error either way.  The only exception is that when 
GEOM_STRIPE is compiled in kernel, I can't (obviously) use the 
kldunload/kldload workaround to make the stripe accessible..

I have also tried removing the line that loads the module from 
loader.conf and *NOT* having GEOM_STRIPE compiled in the kernel.  I 
wanted to see if GEOM_STRIPE still got loaded to test Giovanni Tirloni's 
theory that the module was being loaded twice.  GEOM_STRIPE was not 
loaded when removed from loader.conf (as expected).

So I'm still stuck.  Any other ideas?  Thanks for your help.  I'll try 
anything at this point.  :)
