:Hey, another one! This is encouraging --  may be, we'll have to pull the
:5.0 release back a little :) Thanks, Matt, and all the others working on
:this...

:Is the  -current safer  today than  the Aug  23 one?  Or should  keep my
:desktop at that for now?

    -current is not going to stabilize for a long time.  Just off the top
    of my head we have:

    * Julian's KSE code (Julian)
    * struct file and associated locking (Aflred)
    * struct proc locking (JHB)
    * unwinding Giant for related routines after the above locking is
      in-place and tested (Me, JHB, Alfred)

    All going into the main tree over the next few weeks.  Each one of
    these has an effect on a large number of core files.
