kerneld 1.3.57, running just fine, except for this little problem...

I'm getting some modprobe messages in my syslogs like this:

modprobe: Can't locate module binfmt-28192
modprobe: Can't locate module binfmt-26400

It seems that I need some aliases defined for them in /etc/conf.modules.
I've got no idea what kerneld was looking for, and everything seems to
be working just fine.

While I'd like to be told what to do for these specific errors,
perhaps it would be useful if someone could explain how to go about
tracking down what these aliases should be. I couldn't find anything
about this in the man pages.

Thanks.
