Yes.  This is what ClearModuleList does.  Basically, ClearModuleList is
designed to let us re-order ALL of the modules in the server.  This
includes those modules that were pre-linked.

For right now, just add an AddModule command to your config file that puts
the MPM back in the server.

We still need to decided if we even want to support ClearModuleList in
2.0.  If not, then we should remove it.  If so, then it should not be
clearing out the MPMs
