Thanks for the hint. Looks promising.

I extend my dreams towards a "real-world", microkernel based, BSD-like, 
multiserver
(= non-monolithic) operating system (meaning that most drivers run in 
separte address
spaces and therefor cannot crash whole kernel).
Not sure if such an os could be called BSD anymore.
