And speaking of UVM...
In the last snapshot, the binaries were not built with UVM, while the
kernels were (due to a sup to fix build problems elsewhere in kernel
code).
It is my feeling that since the kernel now defaults to UVM, I should
build the binaries with UVM as well. I see that PMAP_NEW was still
commented out as of May 4th; when (if) it becomes default, I'll build
it in, too.
So, unless I hear serious objection, next week will see UVM-ized binaries...

Contrary to popular belief, Unix is user friendly.
It just happens to be selective about who it makes friends with.
