The last time I talked to Bill Sommerfeld, the main problem was that
introducing the multiprocessor code into the main cvs branch created some
funky instabilities with single processor machines.

But I agree with Dave...if you get the kernel built, it should be pretty
damn solid.  Its just a matter of Bill keeping his branch synced with the
-current branch, which has been undergoing lots of scheduler changes
lately in preparation for a native threads implementation.
