Actually, I'm up for MFC'ing the current set of documentation or applying
my patch directly to LINT (and leaving NOTES alone). I'll let Jordan
make the call on what he'd like to see in 4.x.
I'd really like to see this get done because of what I see on the
postrgresql lists and my own experiances not having fun trying to
tune for semaphores and shared memory by having to grovel through the
kernel source to get a clue as to what each tunable does.
It would be a really nice 'feature' to be in 4.2 and not having
these things documented almost qualifies as a bug.
