BTW, I have another issue, which is not so small for me.
I cannot just do buildworld on vultr due to bug described at http://bugs.dragonflybsd.org/issues/2793
The chance is about 10% to get buildworld without hang.
It just hangs when compiler compiles very big files. Due to this, I can't use
dragonfly in more "production" way, just play with it for now.
