Actually.. Jacques Vidrine <nectarFreeBSD.ORG> is in the process of (has
finished?) backporting jail(2,8) to -STABLE. This is currently being
discussed on discussed on freebsd-stableFreeBSD.ORG. So far, however, I'm pretty
certain that the developers will choose not to commit due to a small
chance that the commit may break binaries (KLD's) built by third-party
vendors (if any). Jacques questions whether there are any or not.. please
see freebsd-stableFreeBSD.ORG mailing list archives.
