When I looked at that patch, I actually couldn't see anything different
at all from freebsd. We aren't interested in maintaining 99% duplicate
code --- it seems much easier from a maintenance standpoint to introduce
an ifdef or two into the freebsd code, rather than deal with a large cut
and paste job. Please try it that way and see what you come up with.
(It's possible that it'll be so ugly that we agree your original patch
is better, but we need to see the results of the experiment.)
