Okay.

Hmm, yes, I would like to transition to kmod from module-init-tools, but
'kmod load' doesn't work for me, at least not within the standalone guix
system.  'kmod help' doesn't list 'load' as one of the commands either.

The only way I was able to get 'kmod' to work was to create a symlink
named 'modprobe' that points to it, and then running that.

I think we should consider creating those symlinks in our 'kmod'
package.  What do you think?

    Thanks!
      Mark
