Thanks!  That is so awesome!

On the OpenBSD side, I am close to landing our madvise / msync changes.

Then we are mostly in sync.

It was on my radar for a year, but delayed because I was ponderingn
blocking the destructive madvise / msync ops on regular non-writeable
pages.  These ops remain a page-zero gadget against regular (mutable)
readonly pages, and it bothers me.  I've heard rumour this has been used
in a nasty way, and I think the sloppily defined semantics could use
a strict modernization.
