Re: More thinking securely...
:> I wonder if this is something that we should do slowly as were doing with
:> some of the k&r type definition cleanups in the kernel as there is still a
:> considerable amount of code being pulled in from various
:> places(FreeBSD...).
:> Changing too many of these might slow down the import process for code, ex
:> the agp code from today....

:Good point. In the short term patches could be maintained and then
:re-applied after an import from FreeBSD. The long term solution is
:probably more of a philosophical one - how often do we import from FreeBSD?

I wouldn't worry about it too much. While it is true that we are
still importing a lot from FreeBSD, the volume is low enough that
all we really need is a little script (to put in /usr/src/test?)
which can be run in a source subdirectory which grep's out string calls
that need to be fixed.
Here are two little scripts I use *ALL* the time to search for things in
the source tree. They are invaluable. The first one is used simply by
typing 'search searchterms'. I use the second one in the form
'vi `pullout searchterms`'.
