| For the v6 kernel, this is in C code. I never went looking for it in
| later code, so I don't know when it vanished.

I'm sorry, but what is v6?

| The comment in question is a couple of paragraphs, followed by that
| seven-word note. If I remember correctly - my copy of Lyons being in
| storage - the code was the context-switching code, and what was being
| explained was the mechanism that was used to start the first process,
| which involved very machine-dependent work so that that code would do
| the job.

Is this code gone, then?  Which source files contain this routine in FreeBSD
now?
