 No, I believe vehemens said that only PR kern/89271 didn't apply,
 not that both didn't apply.
 
 PR kern/112984 is indeed about the very same bug, yet this PR
 (kern/114688) provides a much better analysis of the problem.
 
 It explains why the "fix" provided in kern/112984 is likely inadequate.
 Note that the "fix" supposed in kern/112984 is just patches by vehemens,
 who also opened this issue, ported blindly to FreeBSD 6.2 by myself
 hoping that it would work. But it didn't.
 
 So I'd favour this issue over kern/112984, because it has more
 valuable information. Maybe they should me merged? Is this possible
 at all with GNATS?
 
 I'd really like to see this fixed, but I have no clue about the
 subsystems involved either. Without knowing how these subsystems
 are supposed to interact by design it's almost impossible to come
 up with "the proper" fix.
 
 vehemens, are you still actively trying to find a fix for this issue?
