I think that the kernel must not depend on userlevel stuff to be completly
functional. I know that it' s just completly functional but pratically
everybody uses update to avoid losing a lot of data if the machine crash
so _I_ think that it would be nice to have update running in the kernel
itself (tunable with /proc/sys/... of course). update don' t worry me
though ;-).
