    The simplified version of the maxusers auto-sizing has been MFCd but
    people need to be aware that to use it you need to update your kernel
    source AND recompile /usr/src/usr.sbin/config.  If you use an old config
    with a kernel conf specifying a maxusers of 0 you will get a warning and
    maxusers will be forced to 8 by the old config binary.
