For what it's worth, we would have no objection to Kirk's hooks and stubs
going into FreeBSD, nor would we have any objection to other similar projects
as long as the non-poison'ed version of the OS does not suffer.

Suffer includes, but is not limited to, performance degredation and bit-rot.

FreeBSD is one of the most widely OEM'ed non-embedded OSs in the world because
of the unrestricted licensing options.  Companies like Whistle, and to a much
lesser extent, Juniper, contribute to the FreeBSD project because we believe
in this OS.  Making FreeBSD unfriendly to OEM developers would be a pity.
