Well, if they don't work with the new kernel we need a bump.
Yup. old crash(8) and old vmstat(1) will not work with newer kernel (and
the opposite is also true) due to changes in structure layouts.
I will bump the kernel shortly.
Does anyone else have something coming soon that would like to "ride the
bump"?
