Seems an ideal > location, once this is MI. Once again, *no*. Linprocfs is not a real filesystem. If you'd suggested sys/miscfs, I'd halfway agree with you (in fact, that's where I originally imported it) but only halfway as linprocfs is *definitely* a compatibility thing, and belongs in sys/compat alongside the Linuxulator. BTW, the fact that linprocfs does not currently depend on the Linuxulator doesn't mean it never will.
