May I ask what was your intention behind trying to minimize looking at
the NetBSD code?  By loosing a lot of similarity, won't this lead us to
potential problems with incorporating fixes and improvements from NetBSD 
in the future?  We always tried to keep the code in sync with other
BSDs, didn't we?
