We've hashed this out in the ancient past before and decided that we would require a custom kernel for 80386 for 5.x but not a custom userland. For 6.0 we are (finally!) going to just drop 80386 altogether. I've been wanting to do this personally since early SMPng days, but we came to an agreement back then and since we've already gone and branched RELENG_5 and frozen the ABI I think we should stick to the previously agreed-upon plan. -- John Baldwin <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve" = http://www.FreeBSD.org
