Diffs for KSE milestone 2 are at http://www.freebsd.org/~julian
(about 1.8MB)

Thanks to Matt Dillon who tracked down the last major instability.

This is i386 only (some other diffs included but not working)

This pushes  the 'thread' pointer through nearly all of the kernel
in preparation for architectural changes which will
start soon. This is basically -current with
a lot of housekeeping and parameter changes.

People are invited to check this diff for logical
problems.

Particularly such things as:

aaa(p)
becoming
aaa(td->td_proc)

where td could be NULL, which would be a problem,
where p being a NULL might have been OK.

In particular kernel hackers are invited to check out diffs in their
own areas of expertise looking for such logical problems.
