Everyone is still welcome to update their sources on the RELENG_6_0

We are still installing new servers with 4.x, because I haven't seen a
really stable FreeBSD-stable release since... This includes current
RELENG_6_0.
I started going through the ktrace code a few days ago to look at adding
thread IDs to ktrace records. I'm happy to pick up the ktrace item in
your todo list. My plan is basically to restore elements of the 4.x
queueing model: rather than asynchronously dispatching all ktrace records
to a single worker thread, dispatch them to disk from the system call
return path for a thread. There are a few issues with threading that
require attention -- in particular, avoiding writes on the vnode operation
after close. This will also slow down ktracing again, but should avoid
dropping records. I hope to have something hacked together in a few days,
but not in time for 6.0.
