Its definition in _types.h, : while established practice in NetBSD, met with considerable : controversy when I tried to expand it in FreeBSD land.

Maybe we should move this straggler from _types.h : to param.h and start using it more often. : : Warner :
Here's what I came up with this afternoon between fires at work. Comments?
