It will also fail in a multimachine environment and when you change 
kernels. To address the second point I propose one of the following:

* make klibc nostamp
* make klibc use MACHINE_KERNEL_PR (and all kernels and machines using 
klibc)

To address the first point I think we need to get Graeme's stuff in.
