modular dependencies

Is there a man page or has anyone worked out a list of dependencies for
kernel modules to indicate which options are required in a kernel config?

e.g. to load /stand/*/*/modules/exec_elf32 you need "options PAX_ASLR"
or for "compat" you need SYSVMSG/SYSVSHM/SYSVMSG 

It's no fun having a kernel which can't run anything because of
missing options like these.

Do we have to grovel through src/sys/modules/*/Makefile ?

Are they expected to be provided by other modules in future?
