 This is an interesting approach, and at first glance I can't see anything wrong
 with it.  That said, it needs very careful consideration; so to avoid confusion
 and make sure that this doesn't get committed before the right people have a
 chance to consider it sufficiently:
 
          +----------------------------------------------------------+
          |UNDER NO CONDITIONS SHOULD THIS PATCH BE COMMITTED WITHOUT|
          |EXPLICIT APPROVAL FROM THE FREEBSD SECURITY OFFICER.      |
          +----------------------------------------------------------+
