 Thank you, Jukka! I built a custom kernel from the same source, by your
 exact instructions (no other kernel options different from GENERIC), and
 just tested sysutils/estd - it simply works. This was enough for me to
 report SUCCESS, though if you need further information about my system
 (eg sysctl output) I'll be glad to provide it.

 (Thanks Eric and indirectly Cristoph for your informative comments)
