The original use case for rump kernels was to aid NetBSD kernel 
development and testing.  To show that rump kernels could be used for 
that, a large number of varying tests was written.  To this day, that 
fairly sizeable test set is run multiple times per day at 
releng.netbsd.org (since late 2010 to early 2011).  If there are problem 
with the hijack implementation, the test runs will quickly catch them.
