It's such a simple patch, and it fixes problems that would otherwise
exist under 4.x's linux emulation, and it only effects the linux
emulation. And I've been running it for a while under 5.x already (as
I said). And I put it up for a review 2 weeks ago. And it makes no
major infrastructure changes to the core system.
Unless you can justify a reason for it NOT to be MFC'd immediately, I
see no reason to wait for this particular baby. That is, unless you
*like* linux applications that use scripts to start running FreeBSD
utilities even when you have all the appropriate linux packages
installed!
