When Dennis wakes up he'll say more, but my foggy memory holds that
although we ran a 32V kernel for a while, we eventually cut over to a
Berkeley kernel that was then hacked to ribbons and eventually led to
the 8th edition.  It may even have been multi-step: Berkeley, 32V,
Berkeley.  There was a lot of hand-wringing over which kernel the
research machines should run.  Hands still wring today, on occasion.
