  That's correct.  Yours could be bumped a bit (factor of 10?  I'm not
really sure where it would cause problems in practice, though I think
I understand the general explanations I've seen), and mine could be
bumped a good bit.  But I intend to stick with a stock kernel since I
expect most users will be using a stock kernel, and I don't have a
pile of extra machines to play with.  ;-(
