No, it screws up the quality of the codebase if it cannot be tested and
used every day, and I doubt Terry will be doing real testing.

HOWEVER, I am willing to keep netns working if someone can provide a pure
XNS with IP-over-XNS provider.  Playing around using multiple FreeBSD boxen
with a possibly broken but interoperable implementation is also out of the
question, as nobody uses it.  For things that people actually use, it's OK
as prototyping fixes and getting them in tree, and then the users can find
where it's broken later.
