It sounds to me like this would be interesting to have, as long
as it wouldn't be much work to keep it up-to-date now. I have
a vague notion that this might be very useful for AFS file
servers, for instance. (although that would require some more
work on the OpenAFS-side of things...)
I haven't had a chance to try this yet, but I might try some
tests with it next weekend. I could try it on PPC and Sparc64,
in addition to i386.
