Hi Alan,
This commit makes my box crash with HEAD at startup. Please back it out
and investige why it happens. I'm pretty sure that it happens for
RELENG_6 too.
The assertion that fails for you under HEAD does not exist in RELENG_6.
Have you seen a different assertion failure or crash in RELENG_6 since
this patch was applied there?
I will discuss this with [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Regards,
Alan

Correct a very old and very obscure bug: vmspace_fork() calls
pmap_copy() if the mapping is VM_INHERIT_SHARE. Suppose the mapping
is also wired. vmspace_fork() clears the wiring attributes in the vm
map entry but pmap_copy() copies the PG_W attribute in the PTE. I
don't think this is catastrophic. It blocks pmap_remove_pages() from
destroying the mapping and corrupts the pmap's wiring count.
This revision fixes the problem by changing pmap_copy() to clear the
PG_W attribute.
