My eventual goal is to converge on a shared copy of these files,
generally moving to what is already done in the kernel's
implementation. If there's reasonable clean up or improvements to be
made in the kernel code I'm interested in doing so, but I'm not really
sure what to do with the caddr_ts there yet. I see that NetBSD removed
all uses of caddr_t.
