Mostly as an FYI to everybody else..  While I appreciate getting to have a
quick sanity check on this stuff, by no means do I consider a 'lock' being
held here.  There are some lower level differences between i386 and amd64
kernels, but for the most part, the rest is essentially the same.  The
syntactic differences (register names, lack of things like VM86, sizes etc)
account for most of the differences and they are pretty obvious.  I do
appreciate people taking their best shot at doing parallel commits to the
amd64 tree, even if it hasn't been compile tested on amd64.

Having said that, sledge.freebsd.org is available, and its a pretty damn
quick machine.  It'll be better when the SMP code is finished (I've got it
compiling, it needs some of the startup code rewritten) though.  I've found
myself taking advantage of its speed when doing compile tests on MI parts
of the kernel or tree.

Cheers,
-Peter
