Sorry if you interepreted my remarks as directed to you. I just never made
contact with someone that could help me understand why my email to
developers@ was vanishing w/o a trace. I believe it may be because I'd
attached a patch to msgs and it was causing the MTA to discard it w/o
notice.

I have yet to commit all the changes to /usr/src/release/Makefile that tie
into these mods. I thought it was safe to commit what I did w/o those
changes. I'm in the process of testing a possible solution to the
sysinstall problem and once that's going I'll commit the Makefile mods and
test putting back the tun device.
