Inquiring minds want to know, etc. Well, there are a few things that came up when I proposed putting it into -current (on the -arch list), and I haven't gotten around to fixing those yet. Part of the problem is that I have changed jobs, and no longer have access to the hardware I was using to test things out with. Drew Gallatin has supplied remotely accessible hardware that I can use to debug things, so the main thing I need at at the moment is time to fix the issues that Bosko, Matt Dillon and others had with the code.
