i've used 2.2.2, 2.2.8, and 3.4. they're all cool, except the 3.4 one
was "less cool" since it was elf and therefore (huh?!) lacked the
userspace program to write the changed you made back into the kernel
image, meaning that you had to do it again and again and again.
unless you built yourself a new kernel.

it will mean major work in config though (presumably), since freebsd
kernels can be built with tons of stuff "turned off" but waiting to be
"turned on" in the configurator.
