- "make regress" in src/regress/lib/libpthread on stock 4.0 enviroment
  with a revivesa kernel is passed successfully.

- "make test" in pkgsrc/lang/perl5 on the same environment
  works similar with 4.0 kernel (fails in 4 thread tests as well).

- An assertion caused by firefox3 on 4.0 environment I reporeted
  can't be reproducible 100%. (some race condition?)

- Maybe it's much better to do these tests on any SMP box
  (I don't have MP machines) and amd64 (or any other ports).

- sysctl kernl.no_sa_support returns 1 even on revivesa.
  Is it better to make it writable?
