Great!  Thanks for the work!

Is it possible to MFC the work back to 8-STABLE at some point?  A
colleague of mine has tried to compile the code on 8-STABLE but seems
that it's using some new API I guess...  I've asked him to try a
9-CURRENT kernel but the Atom based netbook would take some while to
compile the code =-)

Cheers,
