While you're at it, check out L4Ka::Pistachio (http://l4ka.org/),
a microkernel in which you can replace the builtin scheduler by
a userland scheduler. L4 has nothing to do with FreeBSD [unless
someone tries to port *BSD to run on top of L4...], so this may
be slightly off-topic.

That should answer some of your questions. Afaik most of this would be best
answered by looking at the sources... can't think of any docs over some of it...
