[Openswan Users] KLIPS module

Just a question (probably a stupid one).

When using openswan with KLIPS as a module, I have to manually load the 
module for openswan to use it or is there an automatic way for doing it?

I just did a setup with FC4, and unless I manually load the ipsec.ko module, 
openswan tries to use netkey:

insmod /lib/modules/2.6.16-1.2108_FC4_natt/kernel/net/key/af_key.ko
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.16-1.2108_FC4_natt/kernel/net/ipv4/ah4.ko
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.16-1.2108_FC4_natt/kernel/net/ipv4/esp4.ko
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.16-1.2108_FC4_natt/kernel/net/ipv4/ipcomp.ko
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.16-1.2108_FC4_natt/kernel/net/ipv4/xfrm4_tunnel.ko
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.16-1.2108_FC4_natt/kernel/drivers/char/hw_random.ko
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.16-1.2108_FC4_natt/kernel/crypto/des.ko
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.16-1.2108_FC4_natt/kernel/crypto/aes.ko

If I unload those modules and manually run

insmod /lib/modules/2.6.16-1.2108_FC4_natt/kernel/net/ipsec/ipsec.ko

then openswan uses the KLIPS module.

Is there a way to make openswan look for ipsec.ko first or should I load the 
module at boot time?
