The message I quoted was from the -stable machine. I thought -stable still required the use of the compatibility slice. Am I mistaken about that? You may be on to something, though. The -current machine that failed does still have the compatibility slice in its fstab. A different -current machine which does not use the compatibility slice came back up without a hitch.
