Core decided we like the name kgets() better, but this is done. I've also purged all uses of gets from bootloaders in favor of kgets, except for one in x86k that needs platform knowledge. That's being tracked in PR 51200. If doing this causes anything to stop fitting in size constraints or otherwise creates problems, speak up. -- David A. Holland dholl...@netbsd.org
