   It is not any more fundamentally obsolete or bad than most other
   software out there.

   We *know* that there are some fundamental issues with the current
   implementation. We *know* for example that performance will never quite
   match modern monolithic systems; that there are problems that can not be
   fully solved within the current design.

This depends on what issues you are refering to.  The two
(semi-serious) problems that Marcus pointed out wrt to passive
translators and firmlinks can be solved.  As was pointed out by
Bushenell, and someone else.
