Speakup -- as a kernel module instead of patch

[Rich Caloggero]

Is this a posibility/probability in the future? Is their a reason why this
is not posible or probable? Are their limitations on which parts of the
kernel can be made modules and which cannot? I assume that the catch is when
do these resources need to be used. SPeakup is needed as soon as posible,
before init starts. Do modules only run after init starts?
