This is what -q option is for, and it always worked this way initially. Later modprobe in m-i-t changed behavour, but it is not really necessary to follow this - IMHO anyway. After all, you requested to load a module and modprobe can't do that, hence I think m-i-t is wrong here. Besides, it works just fine here, no annoying error messages like that. I'd close this bug right away but I want to hear your opinion first, hence downgrading it to wishlist - since the behavour is correct.
