No.  To local disk.

It seems related to the last series of VM changes (quite a while back,
I'm afraid).  I have not been able to repeat it reliably without a
huge amount of work in my test case.

It seems related to zero fill of partial pages when frags are in use,
and the resulting change to the frag does not result in the dirty
page being treated as if it were really dirty.  I can't be more
specific than that without a lot more work, unfortunately.

Yes.  It has a number of problems, including that it does not
interoperate with the 30 eval LDAP browser for Windows 95, and
that by default it wants ndbm, which FreeBSD pretends to support,
but doesn't.
