(Dropping netbsd-users@ as I do not like to send to multiple lists at
once.)

I was going to ask, and never got around to:

  How is this different than FreeBSD jails?

  If so, why?  Is something wrong with FreeBSD jails?

From your page, it sounds like you are doing essentially the same
thing -- which makes sense.  But with renaming, apparently you aren't.
I'm trying to figure out if this is just different to be different, or
if there is a reason to do other than implement what FreeBSD did and use
their code.
