HEADS-UP: Be careful with newest GENERIC...

I'm having mixed results with the new GENERIC which switches the
default scheduler to 4BSD and turns on PREEMPTION.  It's fine
with the 4BSD scheduler but PREEMPTION seems to be causing some
problems on a few of my machines.

If you give PREEMPTION a try I'd be interested in hearing if it's
successful or not.  I'm wondering if I'm just "lucky" and it's
OK for everyone else or if it's causing other people problems too.
