Argh. This would seem a bit more tricky to deal with.  (I need to remember
to grep the archives prior to opening my keyboard).  Is it that the kernel
by design locates buffers in high memory, or does one have flexibility in
where you locate them?  I guess my question is, does NetBSD have the
facilities to allocate buffers in physical memory where you please?  If
not, how do you get around this problem?
