To reply to this point - I'm very interested in modules, but it
doesn't meet a basic requirement for me - easily going back to a
previous kernel when the new one is broken for some reason - if they
share the same kernel version, they share the same
/stand/amd64/9.99.99/modules directory, and if the problem is there,
I'm stuck.

I think /netbsd/ as a directory including a kernel and modules would
be a solution. I think christos? proposed it at some point and but it
never happened.

Christos started on KERNEL_DIR option, but didn't finish it.  I did
some testing and filed several PRs (kern/55928, kern/55929, and
kern/55930), but so far no further work has occurred.
