I hadn't thought about that.  A simple ExcludeModule directive doesn't
really cover that case, because you'd end up having to write 99
ExcludeModule statements.

Hi Andrei,
Ok, that seems good.  If we don't find any AddModule directives, then
resort to auto-discovery.  How do we deal with the pesky generic
module?  In my opinion, we shouldn't try to detect it automatically.
Should the existence of an
AddModule "foo-generic" "sd_generic" "foo-generic.conf"
directive also disable module discovery?  I suppose it should, for
consistency's sake.
