 	Hello.  Having not read these patches thoroughly, it's unclear
 to me if they cause the atime field to be updated if a segment of an
 executable is paged-in during program execution, i.e. when new data needs
 to be paged in for a daemon process, but historical behavior on FreeBSD, as
 well as other BSDish systems suggests that it should.  Also, I note that
 the bug is still present in FreeBSD-4.7 stable as of December 2002.  It
 would be very nice if someone could make this work in FreeBSD 4.x again,
 or, at the very least, correct the problem in FreeBSD-5.1.  
 -thanks
 -Brian
