Yoshiaki, thanks for the tip.  I didn't check CVS commit logs to see
when this tunable was introduced.  It appears that the systems I'm
looking at don't have the use_uma tunable because the kernel was built
from RELENG_8 code dated May 23rd.  This would also explain why Pete
sees the tunable and I don't.

Wish this stuff was documented somewhere.  :-)
