Matt,

Thanks for the great explanation!

Hopefully, I'll get a chance to try this for alpha (though I won't
mind if somebody beats me to it).

I've also been meaning to get iprobe (kernel profiler) going again
too, to find out why -current on alpha sucks so badly right now.
(your gettimeofday() syscall test shows that -current has over 2x the
overhead for syscalls on alpha, even w/o INVARIANTS).

Drew
