+</I>
+I'm not sure what the specifications specifically meant in this regard,
+but we did used to have a lib made from module-init-tools which was then
+used elsewhere. We've not dropped that lib, and now use libkmod directly
+everywhere it's needed.
+
+The only thing we've not done is to actually use the kmod binaries for
+modprobe, insmod, rmmod, lsmod, etc.
+
+That said, it's a simple switch in the kmod spec to turn it on (and
+obsolite module-init-tools). I've mentioned this before, but no one
+really picked up on it. It's very late in the day to do this switch
+(although I have personally be running it for a while without any issues).
+
+There was one issue regarding the kernel *bin depmods files and dracut
+that someone reported as being due to that dracut was using kmod but the
+kernel's *.bin files were created with m-i-t... I forget the details, so
+not sure if it's an issue or not.
