I'll put it in the batch with Daniel's scheduling cleanup patches that 
will become Build 0003.  Right now the version in CVS is Build 0002 
under my new versioning scheme, which includes Arno's big cleanup patch 
of 12/30/2004 and Daniel's cleanup patches of 1/27.

On my own system, I had to add "disable_smp=true" because the SMP stuff 
isn't working on my Pentium 4 HT now that the ACPI code finds the 
simulated SMP.  The error I get is that the init process gives a memory 
access violation in getpid(), which is implemented in libc by returning 
the thread ID from a structure pointed to by the GS segment register. 
So perhaps the GS register is not getting initialized properly during 
the boot_ap_processors() phase.

The good news is that Arno's patches fixed the v86 code and now the PS/2 
mouse driver and APM poweroff code are working again.
