PAE has supported kernel modules for quite a long time.

KLDs are supported under PAE? Are the following lines in pae(4):

"""
     Since KLD modules are not compiled with the same options headers that the
     kernel is compiled with, they must not be loaded into a kernel compiled

and these in the PAE configuration fille:

"""
# Don't build modules with this kernel config, since they are not built with
# the correct options headers.
makeoptions     NO_MODULES=yes
"""

wrong?

Not as such, but if you use buildkernel then modules *are* built with the correct options headers. There's nothing fundamental preventing PAE modules from working, and indeed they do.
