As an example of this, consider mod_xml_cdr. By default, module
"mod_xml_cdr" is not loaded - it is commented out in modules.conf.xml.
However, also by default, the config file for mod_xml_cdr (xml_cdr.conf.xml)
is in the autoload_configs/ directory. Does this mean that the contents of
xml_cdr.conf.xml get loaded into the main FS configuration even if
mod_xml_cdr is not enabled in modules.conf.xml? Yes. You can actually see
the xml in memory by using the "xml_locate" command at the FS command line:

xml_locate configuration configuration name xml_cdr.conf

or you can dump the whole xml config with this:

xml_locate root

Make sense? Anyway, the bottom line is that any XML file in
autoload_configs/ will get loaded into the big XML configuration file that
gets stored in memory, even if the corresponding module is not loaded from
modules.conf.xml.
