I'll tell you what is junk... patches for things like getuid() sitting
in P4 (whether instrumented or not). That's junk.
I'll tell what is NOT junk. What isn't junk are things like John's more
complex patch to kern_descrip.c. There's real work involved there
that can be salvaged, and which can be committed to the -current
piecemeal if Giant is properly instrumented.
The biggest problem is that all of this stuff is sitting in P4 and none
of it belongs there.
