Actually, (at least on RH 5.2) lsmod seems to do nothing more than attach
column headings to the contents of /proc/modules. Within a program, you can
just open and read the (pseudo)file /proc/modules. From the command line,
either lsmod or cat /proc/modules will get you a list of the currently
installed modules.
