I would love to incorporate it in both source trees if possible.  Before
it goes into current, I need to make some changes so that it will work
with Poul-Henning Kamp's new watchdog driver model.  Hopefully, I'll get
to work on that some tomorrow.  I'll release a new version for current
as soon as it's ready.

Wow, this is great!  I tried it out on a few RELENG_4 boxes and it works
as expected=20

wdog0 on motherboard
isab0: Found Intel 82801DB watchdog device

Are there any plans to incorporate this into the 5.x and 4.x source
tree ?   This would be useful to a lot of people.
