Right now, modules skips over any dot-files in the modulefile dirs.
So if one of these source management systems would deposit their
metafiles in say .RCS or .CVS all would be wonderful.
Unfortunately, of the two I'm aware of RCS and CVS, they don't
appear to have such a mechanism.

I would gladly accept a patch that would eliminate traversing or
displaying such dirs.  ;^)  It should also be something that
can be optionally disabled though.
