It shouldn't load all modules it finds, but glx is one of the
default ones - and I've noticed the recursion too - it seems to
be a result of a fix upstream to the module loader which was
previously inserting "/" in the wrong place in module paths and
as a result, using invalid paths when scanning for modules.
I'm considering moving the mesa module to /usr/lib/mesa so it's
not in a subdir unless the opengl switcher link points to it.
(Fortunately, nvidia's is still in /usr/X11 so should hopefully
always be found after the opengl-switcher link, since that's
later in the Xorg ModulePath. If they ever move it, then
we'll have to talk about putting it outside the default path
too.)
