28587fcf3e Perform some checking on the requested list of modules to warn people if they
try to load modules by filename out of the current directory where the module
in question may be further up the module path or not in the module path at all.

Also add some text to the man page to help explain what's going on.

b389f452d8 a few code style changes:
o start function names in column 1
    o sort order of flags in getopt and switch
    o don't try to reference progname
    o unspam some changes introduced by a 2.2.1-R build box instead of a
	-current build box

doc changes:
    o document when these commands first appeared
    o put email address in angle brakets
    o minor mdoc clean up

075da1dbb9 activate the programs that will be used to manipulate kld modules
fix a few problems with missing headers, warn called with an exit
value, and undeclared getopt vars

these programs now compile -Wall clean (and yes, I know I should use
more than just -Wall) :)
