Indeed -- it would be nice not just to reclaim the FIB bits, but also to 
support more simultaneous FIBs.  We still need to do a KBI analysis of mbuf 
for 9.0 across various architectures, but it would be pretty late to fix the 
FIB thing.  On a redesign, clearly too late for that as well.  I still hope we 
can get the variable size mbuf cluster in for 10 though.
