You can find the symbols in com.apple.kpi.unsupported by
running nm against it.  Eg:

nm -m /System/Library/Extensions/System.kext/PlugIns/Unsupported.kext/Unsupported

The most reliable way I've found to see if my kext is using symbols
from a particular dependancy is to simply remove it from the kext's
property list (Info.plist) and see if the driver still loads, or if it
complains about missing symbols.
