I'm running the latest Amazon AMI (amzn-ami-hvm-2016.09.1.20170119-x86_64-gp2). If I run nginx -V, I can see it's been configured with many modules:
$ nginx -V
nginx version: nginx/1.10.1
built by gcc 4.8.3 20140911 (Red Hat 4.8.3-9) (GCC)
built with OpenSSL 1.0.1k-fips 8 Jan 2015

However, /usr/lib64/nginx/modules is empty. Where are these modules?
