I been using Gentoo for a long time.  I have never had modules except
for my nvidia driver.  I see no reason for having modules unless for
some reason some software requires something to be a module.  I did see
that requirement once but it was a rare case and quite some time ago.

I'm with others, just build it in then you don't have to worry about
loading the module at all.
