Why do you think it's different on fbsd? Also, why is it unreasonable that DONNEED removes stuff from the cache?
It seems kind of silly that it means "No one, even people I am not aware of and have no right to speak for, needs this" as opposed to "I don't need this, don't keep it around on my behalf."
