It is a production machine, and I am really getting tired and
frustrated of fucking around with free Unixes broken in basic ways,
after having to ditch NetBSD for FreeBSD because on NetBSD the network
interfaces kept stalling twice an hour and requiring 'ifconfig hme0
down up'. But I guess there is no alternative unless I want to use
i386. I can get any card you like, but I guess no card is ready yet.
It doesn't do much good to keep the machine stable by not sloppily
fuzzing old patches if it is going to livelock under the first
small-packet DDoS.
Thanks for the patches. I'll definitely give it a shot. I just hope
the release engineering guys are not persistently leaving all this
sparc64 stuff broken and ignoring your patches because they are
worried i386 will be destabilized---that's not appropriate if the
project is serious about this port. Thanks again, I'll try them.

Imagine if every Thursday your shoes exploded if you tied them the usual

complaining.
