Looks mostly ok, but I do have some questions.

1) appl/fs/fs_local.h: would that break `fs nnpfsdeb all`?

2) cf/try-compile-kernel.m4: why do we need /usr/include? It sounds
scary given that we may want to compile using random kernel trees. Same
goes for nnpfs/freebsd/FreeBSD-Makefile. I don't know much about kernel
build magic.

3) cf/bsd-vop-unlock.m4: do we need it? I don't care about older
versions of FreeBSD than 6.x; traditionally we try to support latest
stable OS-release plus -CURRENT but maybe that's a bit limiting.
Perphaps nnpfs_vfs_unlock solves part of the problem?

thanks
