As far as I can tell, kmod is supposed to be a drop-in replacement for the deprecated tools of module-init-tools. Nonetheless bugs may be there ;) Can you still load aesni_intel by hand? Are you sure the module has not been renamed to something else? Intel renamed iwlagn to iwlwifi some time ago, didn't notice that at first.
