Comment (by syd):

 Replying to [comment:8 thomie]:
 > syd: so what is your plan here? `ls` all files in current and parent
 directories, and then try to guess what the user meant?
 That is a possibility.

 If that's the other option, compared to looking at the modules already
 compiled, we have to trade off looking into the directories for a possible
 false negative.
