    quynh#  kldload /boot/kernel/random.ko 
    kldload: can't load /boot/kernel/random.ko: Exec format error
    quynh#  kldload /boot/kernel/mem.ko 
    kldload: can't load /boot/kernel/mem.ko: Exec format error
    quynh#  kldload /boot/kernel/io.ko 
    kldload: can't load /boot/kernel/io.ko: Exec format error
    quynh#  kldload /boot/kernel/if_xl.ko 
    quynh#

the error message is a little weird (and deceiving) when one of these
.ko's doesn't load; but this is orders of orders of magnitude better than
panicing. 8-)

thanks for fixing this!
