Update to -STABLE breaks re(4) [CONT'D]

Here a followup:

This has been fixed for me, some time in January.

This problem still remains. I know it's weird to load a
module while it has been compiled in statically, but
it's still a bug, IMO.

Steps to reproduce:
1) On FreeBSD/amd64, compile re(4) support into a STABLE kernel.
2) Add if_re_load="YES" to /boot/loader.conf.
3) Reboot.

What happens?

After loading the kernel image, re(4) module is about to be loaded
and the machine does a a hard reset instantly.

I hope it helps to find the problem.
