Whatever solution you come to, it seems it will have to be done on a module
by module basis. Some of the newer modules (userpages, poll) are not using
the database so there is no base to check their status against except the
code itself. A check in the switch seems to be the way to go. Other module
writers will need to implement the change themselves, but if the mod's
status is based on the modules table, they can just run a check on
block_pos.

Anyway, I'm glad this was found as it is something to be wary of in later
versions.

yes, now that this had been exposed we can hopefully avoid such problems
in the new core.

Later today I'll patch the affected modules with the proposed check.
