But you could do just that, edit it, delete module, modules_k and
module_s and replace them like above.

exclude_modules is for modules that depend on external stuff (which is
less probable to have installed), modules that do not compile a.s.o.

We have also another mechanism: modules groups, e.g.:
make print-modules group_include=mysql
...
modules/: acc_db auth_db avp_db db_ops uri_db domain lcr msilo mysql
speeddial
...

make modules-cfg group_include="mysql standard"
=> all normal modules + mysql.

Right now the groups are not updated for sr, but we can easily do it
(and create more of them if needed).
So far the following groups are defined: standard, standard_dep (modules
that depend on external stuff, but which are likely to be needed), mysql,
radius, presence, stable, experimental.
