Subject:   sbsh(4) MPSAFE patch -- test or driver will be removed!

I have a patch to make sbsh(4) MPSAFE.  However, I am unable to test it.  If 
no one is able to test patches for this driver, it will be removed.  I posted 
the patch to current@ several weeks ago.  If I do not hear anything within a 
week I will remove the driver from HEAD (and thus 8.0).

This driver has very dubious behavior in that it sleeps in lots of places when 
it shouldn't.  I doubt it works properly even with Giant.
