Is there any other reason?

it hasn't been updated in 7 years?
Bug fixes, reliability improvements, and features have not been ported
from greg's -current implementation in netbsd since its initial merge
into the tree 7 years ago. It apears as though just enough to get by
since then...
If its 500k to add to a binary kernel, sit back and think of how many
lines of code that amounts to maintaining.
Did someone mention the need of merging raidframe, bioctl and friends
into one someday? What a beautiful friendship that would be, an all
encompassing raidctl for all types of raid, software or hardware
