Re: [Xen-devel] FreeBSD/Xen ugliness
Due to some changes in my environment (all of the 5.2.1 machines are
being converted to 5.3 and 5.2.1 doesn't compile with 3.4.1), I'm
integrating the 5.3 changes to i386 into the xen port. It looks like
pmap.c is the only file I depend on that was heavily changed, so I may
be running 5.3 under Xen by the end of this weekend. If you could just
hold off until then...
Thanks.
