Umm.. I did all the work a year ago... I didn't "waste" my time as
you seem to imply since it only took three minutes or so to commit them..

I don't have a problem having them removed once support in kgdb(1) (8?),
has been completed...

We probably spent more time typing these two messages than it took me
to commit the scripts...

It was requested of me to commit these the other day when I mentioned
them to another committer (who I don't remeber right now).

Make sure you don't discourage people from working to improve FreeBSD.
