[2.6.7-rc2] Parport_pc module dependencies changed?

Recently (can't say exactly when) my printer and parallel Zip drive
stopped working.
Turns out the reason is that the parport_pc module no longer loads
automatically along with the parport and ppa modules.
Here's an excerpt (line-wrapped) from modules.dep:
/lib/modules/2.6.7-rc2/kernel/drivers/scsi/ppa.ko:
/lib/modules/2.6.7-rc2/kernel/drivers/scsi/scsi_mod.ko /lib/mod
ules/2.6.7-rc2/kernel/drivers/parport/parport.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.7-rc2/kernel/drivers/parport/parport_pc.ko:
/lib/modules/2.6.7-rc2/kernel/drivers/parport/parport.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.7-rc2/kernel/drivers/parport/parport.ko:
<missing line for parport_pc.ko ??> <=================
/lib/modules/2.6.7-rc2/kernel/drivers/char/lp.ko:
/lib/modules/2.6.7-rc2/kernel/drivers/parport/parport.ko
Seems like parport_pc.ko should appear as a dependency for
parport.ko, but doesn't. (At least on on a PC, anyway.)
