 At this very moment I am still hesitant to upgrade to (recent) -current on my
 production machines. Actually, it's more like I am eager to upgrade but cannot
 afford at the moment to be stomped by NFS exec problems. I would prefer local
 caching of NFS executables anyway, but that's several steps away.
 
 Of course you are mainly referring to the problem triggered by vi, which as far
 as I know is still there... but what do I know about it, since I'm not running
 the latest (vm) kernel code.
 
 If someone can convince me and guarantee that the post-lite2 NFS exec panics
 are over, I'll upgrade and get this tested on my environment here (where vi is
 otherwise known to trigger this problem).
