+1 many times over!  I've been hoping someone would implement the
schedulers as linkable kernel modules.  Surely such a thing is
theoretically possible?  Maybe there would have to be a dummy
scheduler module capable of only single-CPU single-threaded
execution to get the kernel to the point where the user-specified
real scheduler could be loaded for further operations.

This is based, of course, on my complete lack of knowledge about
whether the scheduler interface is even compatible with the linkable
kernel module interface, etc., etc.  But it sure would be nice.
