missing serial_core?

I've got a usb serial gps device and I'm trying to get it working under arch.

I've had it working with the backtrack cd and checking the modules installed when it was running I found serial_core but I can't find it on arch.

This is the list of modules I've got installed under arch:

# lsmod | grep core
rtc_core                7684  4 rtc_sysfs,rtc_proc,rtc_dev,rtc_cmos
rtc_lib                 3456  2 rtc_sysfs,rtc_core
pcmcia_core            32920  4 serial_cs,pcmcia,yenta_socket,rsrc_nonstatic
i2c_core               17664  1 i2c_i801
soundcore               6496  1 snd
usbcore               111752  5 usbserial,r8187,ehci_hcd,uhci_hcd
ide_core              111688  4 ide_disk,ide_cd,generic,piix

There is no serial_core:

# modprobe serial_core
FATAL: Module serial_core not found.

Do I have to build this into the kernel by hand or am I missing something?
