Would there be any objection to removing all the non-FreeBSD code (such as the #ifdef NetBSD stuff) from hpfs, smbfs, nwfs, and the like? We have already drastically broken compatibility with other BSD's by replacing simple locks with mutexes and the KSE changes. When I talked to Julian about this in regards to the KSE changes, he said that NetBSD wasn't using the same versions of the files and had already removed all the non-NetBSD stuff from their versions. At this point the non-FreeBSD code has bitrotted and serves to obfuscate more than anything else.
