I just discovered an inconsistency between the two modprobe
implementations (modprobe-small and the "big" modprobe).

It's about "checking whether module has already loaded" part.
Both implementations open and parse /proc/modules file,
however, the "small" version will read the "Live", "Loading" or
"Unloading" states of the modules, while the "big" version totally
ignores it.

So is this inconsistency a sign of a bug?
