Basically means that this portion of code does no longer do the right
thing (as it used to be under 1.1.5). It's part of the fdstrategy()
routine:
#if NFT > 0
if (FDTYPE(minor(bp->b_dev)) & F_TAPE_TYPE) {
/* ft tapes do not (yet) support strategy i/o */
bp->b_error = ENXIO;
bp->b_flags |= B_ERROR;
goto bad;
}
Slice code? FDTYPE?

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
