>Description:
The example used in the man page to getvfsent(3) is taken from
the source of mount_cd9660(8). Unfortunately this source changed a
bit since the inclusion so this example is a bit out of date.
There is also a mentioning about the odd conditional
expression in the mount call below the example. As the new code works
w/o this it is not applicable and should get removed.
>How-To-Repeat:
Just read the example in the man page of getvfsent(3) and the
source of mount_cd9660(8) and compare the corresponding parts.
>Fix:
I fixed this problem by just copying over the new code and
changing the formatting a bit so that the indention style is unchanged
from the old example.
The above mentioned obsolete paragraph about the condicitional
expression I just removed as it is not applicable anymore.

- The odd conditional in the call to
- .Xr mount 2
- is present for compatibility with old, non-LKM cognizant kernels, and
- will be removed (along with all vestiges of
- .Dv MOUNT_* )
