Reducing the need to compile a custom kernel

I've done this a few times.

The /boot/loader takes a _long_ time to suck in the 25 odd modules my
eeepc requires to load a completely modular kernel. It takes a _very
long_ time to suck these in over USB.

It's a great idea and I think we should start down this path in the
10-CURRENT trajectory but those load times need to be tweaked if
possible.
