S'alright, I don't mind working from the FreeBSD side of things, as long as I'm 
not hitting a 'Linux vs FreeBSD' wall trying to do it :)  Why I run FreeBSD is 
my choice, why you run Linux is yours ... IMHO, neither of us are running 
Windows, which should be all that truly matters :)

Let me read through your email and see if I can nudge some comments out of some 
of the 'kernel developers' that I know, who might be able to help shed some 
light ... or at least get us moving forward ...
