This is repeatable on my system.

I read -current, -hacker, and -cvs-all.  I realize that a lot of changes
have been made to the ep0 driver, but the probe of the wt0 driver is BEFORE
ep0 and it recongizes the card as a archive tape drive.  I don't think this
is related to the ep0 driver.

This isn't clear from Bruce's commit messages and the timestamp on the
SNAP.  That is, disk slicing on SCSI was committed prior to 950412.

I've gone back to 950322 and my backup tape.  remaking world now.
