With the 0.9.58 version, it is necessary to reboot if this occurs
(the MOL process exited without cleaning up). I've fixed
this problem in the source tree and it will be gone in 0.9.59.

Btw. the next version of MOL will come as two packages,
mol and mol-kmods. Simplification of the kernel module
recompilation is the main reason for the change. The
mol-kmods module should compile cleanly on any system
having a valid /usr/src/linux link.
