Last I checked, doing so is dangerous because by default the userland
components of vinum have debugging on which is incompatible with
a kernel running vinum without debug (the default when linked in).

So you must also relink your vinum utilities without debug and install
them or you won't be able to use vinum.

I hope to work with Greg soon to resolve this, if it hasn't already
been fixed.
