Yep, this line exists. Perhaps I should have been more explicit in the
second mail message I included, by saying that exactly the same kernel
is used for both tests.

I'm not really looking for a fix, since I've worked around the problem.
I'd simply like to know whether there's a technical reason why MFS can't
be mounted in "dangerously dedicated" swap space, or whether it's simply
a configuration which was not anticipated by the programmer(s).

I doubt it'll hepl, but since _I'm_ the one asking questions and
_you're_ the one offering to help, I've attached the requested
information below.

Thanks,
Sheldon.
