Subject:   mdthread is copied but mdproc isn't?
Message-ID:  <XFMail.20020709162347.jhb@FreeBSD.org>

I'm trying to cleanup the Alpha MD flags and discovered that in KSE-2,
the struct mdthread td_md is in the copy section of struct thread even
though struct mdproc p_md is not (and wasn't before KSE-2 either).  Just
curious if this was accidental or intentional?  I think mdthread should
not be copied by default, but should be treated the same as mdproc, and
the MD code should be responsible for copying/zeroing any bits that it
needs to.
