I'm about to grab this & take a peek.  But before doing so, I just
want to say how amazingly impressed I am that this is out there at
all.  As far as I know, it's only the second implementation of NVS V3
out there, the first being in DEC OSF/1 3.0, which came out only 5
months ago or so.

It's quite impressive for FreeBSD to beat almost every major OS
vendor!
