:> FreeBSD is making changes there (inheritance in kobj() ). What about busdma? I
:> guess you wouldn't want to break new drivers coming from FreeBSD.

:	I can't really comment on Newbus, but I am sure we ought to keep
:	something like busdma around, until a better API comes about.
:	Not only because it's a nice interface, but it is used in NetBSD
:	and FreeBSD and OpenBSD, so I guess we should stick with it.
:
:	The KLD framework surely needs an overhaul though.  I am
:	thinking about integrating changes from FreeBSD-CURRENT for
:	the KLD framework, when I have some free time in my hands.
