This error logging should IMHO be moved to util/module.c. Either have a
helper function to print the error message, or have
module_load_qom_one() print it.
There is also no need to hard-code the module names. We have the module
database and module_load_qom_one() uses it to figure which module must
be loaded for a specific qom object. We can likewise use the database
for printing the error message.
take care,
Gerd
