:Basically, those are the only two things.  Other than that, there is 
:some rcNG related kernel stuff, like Entropy harvesting, which I will 
:look into maybe later today, or sometime later this week.

    We have the 4.x random system, so entropy harvesting is really low-rent
    and is turned off by default.  I did clean up the interrupt code to 
    integrate what entropy harvesting was there (in 4.x it actually 
    intercepted the interrupt dispatch, which is a terrible idea).  The
    best solution is to actually bring in the 5.x random system, which I
    generally like except for a few nits here and there which can be
    easily fixed.
