Hi Chris,

I think it would make code more readable, e.g. like

GList detected_modules = detect_output_modules(MODULEBINDIR);
g_list_foreach (detected_modules, wrapper_of_module_add_load_request, NULL);
module_load_requested_modules();

Then we do not need any name change for detect_output_modules,
since it will do exactly what is stated in it's name.

I'm not very keen on this change, so if you'll decide to do it, I'll
be happy to review your patch.
Otherwise I'm quite fine with your current implementation as well.

Andrei.
