I'm trancking -current (with UVM on) on my home PC, which I use for
developpemnts (so it's mostly running X, vi and gcc :). Never got a
panic ...
However, I'm not sure I would run UVM on a critical server yet. Maybe
I'm too timorous :)
I would surely run -current/UVM on my desktop PCs and sparc at work too,
if I wasn't running INRIA's ipv6 stack on these machines.
