Hi,
Thank you for your good ideas and tips.

I have a question. Is the technique available both kernel module
and the others? I have ported msdosfs module in kernel and
mount_msdos command in sbin/i386.
In mount_msdos source code, I think we can add the following
code to distinguish between two branches.
---------------
#include <osreldate.h>
#if __FreeBSD_version > 300000
printf(" This code is for -current branche\n");
#else
printf(" This code is for -stable branche\n");
#endif
---------------
My disk is so small (400M for FreeBSD, 800M for Win95), that
I cannot have the whole -current environment.
After finishing this porting, I will buy a fat disk. :-)

Thanks in advance.
