 Thats why is called -current... i'm supprised that its such a neat
 bit of nearly-always-compiling-code!

 I started going through the source from the VM system, and seeing the
 differences to the 2.1.5-stable VM system, and there's a massive stack
 of changes.

 The design and imp. 4.4 BSD book makes good reading, and if you ever
 get the itch you could write a little bit for the handbook (the
 freebsd internals) section about the new vm system.   It would be
 great reading IMHO.

 Keep up the good work!
