Actually, if /etc/rc.modules does exist, just add the modprobe command to it. Also, if any package replaces an existing /etc/rc.modules instead of appending lines to it, that package is broken.
If that's the case, then probably it would be better if Fedora would deploy an empty rc.modules, containing only "#!/bin/sh" and let the packages echo "" >> to it. Or create a directory instead, allow packages to put files in it, and let rc.sysinit source'em up. This is probably the cleanest way.
That seems reasonable to me. But I don't think there are any FC packages that use it. The ipw2200 and slmodem modules would be candidates, but they aren't in FC.
