Very briefly (25 words or less) could you clarify for me just how much this
current work depends on what you've already done. I.e. could this upcoming
work be applied to FBSD 4.x as well as DFly?

Will these major changes involve userland also? (Sounds to me like they may.)
That is: when I get kernel panics can I just reboot the old kernel and carry
on -- or not? IOW, the prospect of re-installing from scratch looms large?
I don't necessarily object, but I'd better burn a recent install CD if that's
the case.
