Well, last week I spent an hour or two removing places where FreeBSD
blew up when it tried to write directly to a page directory because
previously I didn't differentiate between PD and PT updates and today
when I removed the WRITABLE_PAGETABLES define the code initially
wouldn't compile. I can test out a tree from as of my checkin, but I'm
fairly positive.
