changes, so don't expect to be able to run the kernel as-is (very well)
without the appropriate Lite/2 userland changes.
The system boots and can mount UFS filesystems.
Untested: ext2fs, msdosfs, NFS
Known problems: Incorrect Berkeley ID strings in some files.
Mount_std mounts will not work until the getfsent
library routine is changed.

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
process won't possibly block before filling in the fsnode pointer (v_data)
which might be dereferenced during a sync since the vnode is put on the
mnt_vnodelist by getnewvnode.

The version 2 support has been tested (client+server) against FreeBSD-2.0,
IRIX 5.3 and FreeBSD-current (using a loopback mount). The version 2 support
is stable AFAIK.
The version 3 support has been tested with a loopback mount and minimally
against an IRIX 5.3 server. It needs more testing and may have problems.
I have patched amd to support the new variable length filehandles although
it will still only use version 2 of the protocol.
Before booting a kernel with these changes, nfs clients will need to at least
build and install /usr/sbin/mount_nfs. Servers will need to build and
install /usr/sbin/mountd.
NFS diskless support is untested.
