: Also, we need to axe a few more things, like KerberosIV and
: netns. Also, it might be a good idea to nuke Perl from base,
: but that's a big step for now I think. Curretly, we need to get
: DragonFly in a state which is almost up-to-scratch with 5.x,
: userland wise, because around the base, there are a lot of
: asumptions made on the kernel, such as some sysctl oids etc, and
: some particular functionality which doesn't exist in
: DragonFly/4.8.

KerberosIV can be removed at any time. Perl has to stick around for
the forseeable future.
Generally speaking sysctl OID dependancies should be changed over
to sysctl-by-name, but it isn't critical. There are still a lot of
hardwired sysctls in use by applications, some not even using macros,
so finding and fixing all the dependancies is not trivial.
