My aim is to optimize pfinet and add advanced networking to it. pfinet
runs on the Hurd, not on MacOS X for example. May be if it run on Mac OS X
I'd choose another methods (or I didn't start to think about it at
all).
But currently we are talking about the Hurd. The Hurd is running above
GNU Mach.
Peace,
Peter.
