Strange line in modprobe.conf

I have finally gotten a Kickstart install to work with FC2T2 (with the
isolinux.bin, initrd.img, vmlinuz, and stage2 from the development tree
yesterday - 04/21/04.  However, during boot up it complains several times
about line 3 in modprobe.conf.  I thought perhaps it was a problem with a
kickstart install so I did a manual install and got the same results.  Is
this just a problem with the development tree yesterday?  I have enclosed
the modprobe.conf file from the old FC2T1 install and the new broken
modprobe.conf file below:

FC2T1:

alias eth0 tulip
alias eth1 e1000

include /etc/modprobe.conf.dist
alias sound-slot-0 snd-intel8x0
install sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -L >/dev/null 2>&1
|| :
remove sound-slot-0 /bin/aumix-minimal -f /etc/.aumixrc -S >/dev/null 2>&1
|| :
alias usb-controller ehci-hcd
alias usb-controller1 uhci-hcd


FC2T2:

alias eth0 tulip
alias eth1 e1000
alias  tulip
alias # If you're having problems with gated making 127.0.0.0/8 a martian,
e1000
alias usb-controller ehci-hcd
alias usb-controller1 uhci-hcd

I'm not sure what to make of the line about a martian either.

It's running on a Single Board Computer (I don't know what make or model,
but I can probably find out if it's important) plugged into a passive
backplane.  eth1 is an e1000 on the SBC itself.  eth0 is another e1000
plugged into the passive backplane as well.

Any information would be helpful.

Thanks
