Well, if you think the current NetBSD code is *stable* ... cough,
splutter.
As described by a CSRG member the port from Mach to 4.4BSD basically
consisted of ripping off the Mach interface, standing the remains next
to the 4.4BSD kernel and pouring in hot glue ...
Now, I'm not qualified to pour glue and am glad that someone who was
did, but that doesn't make it quality engineering!
