That is correct - the modules arch/version information was previously
required in the path, as the modules were stored separately to the
kernels (though it still offered potential issues where a kernel could
use slightly mismatched modules). Plus of course the kernel did not
have the arch/version information in the path.

The new pattern offers the option to have arch/version information
visible in path, plus avoiding any kernel/module mismatch - eg
/netbsd-10.99.65/{kernel,modules}
