Thanks for the info.

Today's "GENERIC" i386 config on your ftp site still doesn't use these
options.  Is there still some reason to prefer the non-UVM config?

If I want to use UVM and PMAP_NEW while your i386 config files don't,
I suppose I need to change bsd.own.mk and rebuild anything with
makefiles testing those flags.  Anything else?

When your i386 configs are specified to use UVM and PMAP_NEW, I'll be
satisfied...
