But, please be so very careful after I commit serious VM changes (esp. in the pmap section.) The stuff has to be tested -- and the changes are critically needed for 2.2. Sorry that it has caused you guys some difficulty, because I really want to make things better (if you want to know why I am making the pmap changes, I'll tell you in private email, it is kind-of embarassing). I did not get much of a chance to work on the stuff tonight, but plan to commit some fixes that could make some of the problems go-away. Good Luck, (and wish me some also :-)). John
