I see unexpected behavior when the current current is not the latest
kernel installed.  I keep meaning to dig into the plugin code and see
if I can patch it to do a better job of enumeration in the case where
running kernel!=lastest installed...but i haven't found a block of
time long enough to do a decent job at it.
