While in general I like playing with sharp knives (you should see my
cluster admin toolkit), and I like my kernel to run fast, and the only
thing that gets trashed is usually at, I still think I'd prefer to
have nops in those delay slots in the kernel. Hand-written assembly is
unlikely to use ".set nomacro" properly.
