This should be merely a wording issue -- it's checking things in teh
wrong order; first for coreness then for uptodateness but reporting
coreness even if the module is uptodate.
So what it ought to really say is 'module encode uptodate' , which it
ought
to be if you check it... we're already changing the wording in the
devel snapshot.
