if you make buildkernel, everything which is specified in your kernel
config is being compiled into your new kernel.  additionally all
available modules (no matter if the code is in your kernel or not) are
compiled.
Actually, Gergo's question is a good one: modules, kldload et al are
not described in the Handbook. (If I can find the time...)
