Oh, ok.

The *context effort by deischen appears on hold. I seem to recall that
we want it implemented as a syscall for the non-thread case. Is there
any news on that front?

BTW: I'm not going to worry about libc_r. Of all the things we need to
do, I think I'd better focus on ptrace for now.
My machine checks have been reduced after I put the SCSI controller in
a different slot, so I don't desperately need proper MCA support to make
my machine usable. The login coredump has gone away, so I don't have to
get ski working for useland that badly in order to diagnose that...

PS: Let me know if what I did is as good as useless. I'll nuke before
we start maintaining it..
