Also, the real answer to 18.15 has changed several times since the FAQ
entry was written.  I don't know enough to write a good replacement,
though.  A number of entries in other sections, e.g. ``16.6. Why are
login names restricted to 8 characters or less in FreeBSD 2.2.X and
earlier?'' are of little interest today.  This is confusing because,
AFAIK, ``5.12. Why does FreeBSD 2.0 panic with `kmem_map too
small!'?'' *is* still relevant to a degree despite the reference to
FreeBSD 2.0.
