You might want to check kern/21844 for a related discussion.

Current netwinder GENERIC looks like this:

   00     .start 
   01     .text link_set_malloc_types link_set_pools link_set_domains link_set_s
ysctl_funcs link_set_vfsops link_set_vfs_hooks link_set_evcnts link_set_dkwedge_
methods link_set_bufq_strats
   02     .data
   03     .bss
