Humm, maybe.  I have a followup change I need to runtime test (it passes
tinderbox) to add a <sys/_pv_entry.h> that deduplicates much of this such
that the 'howmany' is now in a single place and could perhaps be worked
around more centrally.  The new patch file I have would also apply to 7.1
and could eventually be dropped in the future if 7.2 adds <sys/param.h>?

For now, I'm more trying to understand how many ports are affected.
