The text as written isn't incorrect. Take out the appositive and the
sentence becomes: "Everything that the module exports, it defines
inside this table." That is, "Everything that the module exports, the
module defines inside this table." It's an active-voice equivalent of
the same sentence that specifically says that it is the module that
performs the act of definition.
