    static int complained = 6;
     
    if (complained-- ) {
            printf ("process (PID %d) Use static LDT allocation.\n",
                 td->td_proc->p_pid);
            printf ("man i386_set_ldt for more information\n");
    }

    and fix the man paget to indicate that static alloacation
    is frowned upon.

    We should however allow it to succeed if it doesn't collide
    with LUDATA or LUCODE I think.
    (if they are set)
