:    Maybe in the 3-5 pm time range.

    Heh heh.  Ok, major underestimation of the work involved.  This is going
    to take a few days to do right.  Not only do 90+ directories have to be
    moved, but it doesn't make sense to do all the work without also getting
    rid of all the conditional compilation that allows things to be compiled
    either as modules or directly into the kernel.
