And patches (against FreeBSD) are highly encouraged.  It rarely helps
to simply point out flaws (or showing how X OS runs soo much better than
FreeBSD, why are you guys even running FreeBSD?) w/o showing code to fix it.

Note: I am not speaking as an offical representive of FreeBSD, just as
a developer who has too few time to try to code up a patch for code I
haven't seen.  And considering that DragonFlyBSD is based upon FreeBSD
coming up with said patches should be trivial.
