This must pass through -arch before any implementation. Remember, not
every committer reads current.

Don't touch boot. Nothing in the bootstrap is used by the kernel, and
there's just a few kernel files included by the bootstrap (wrongly,

should be taken out of sys/ altogether.

		<jkh> _DES: The Book of Bruce has only one sentence in it, and it says
"the actual directives of my cult are left as an exercise for the
reader. Good luck."
		<EE> jkh: does it really include the 'good luck' part?
		<jkh> EE: OK, I made that part up.
		<jkh> EE: I figured it should sound a bit more cheery than how Bruce
initially dictated it to me.
