I think it's reasonable to do this soon. There is work in progress to intro=
duce
separate user/kernel page tables for Intel "meltdown" mitigation and I don't
want to do anything that might conflict or hold that up, but I do not belie=
ve
there are any kernel-related issues in the branch.

On the other hand, for other mitigations there are fixes in lld for
functionality we're going to use, as well as the retpoline work ongoing for
Clang/LLVM. Having 6.0 in HEAD might help in both testing and deploying this
work.

I'd be happy to move the lld-is-ld exp-run to using lld 6.0; lld in
FreeBSD-HEAD is very close to usable and I think krion@ has addressed about=
 as
much in the ports tree as we're able to. That is, I think 214864 has just a=
bout
served its purpose already, and getting coverage on lld 6 gives us useful n=
ew
information.
