Yes, but this doesn't make any difference for my modprobe, and i tried
module-init-tools 3.3-pre4-2 and 3.4-1 as well as our modprobe. All do
work just fine for modprobing snd-hda-intel, of course even if i have
turned *off* the fancy pruning.

I really suspect that your modprobe or toolchain or setup or whatever
has a problem, not depmod.

I'm still interrested in this output if you find the time. Perhaps you
don't have proc mounted? Please show me the output of those debug-lines.
