hrmph, we've yet to do a release where some broken module hasn't caused this. usually I ask the reporter to modify /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit so that the load_module() function has a echo $1 just before the modprobe line. sometimes this shows us the bogus module, sometimes it makes the problem hide. Lets hope your case is the former..
I installed a more recent build of Rawhide and this problem no longer occurs.
