System: FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE

>Description:
There doesn't seem to exist a way to enumerate active filesystem
snapshots taken with mksnap_ffs other than "find /path -flags snapshot".

>How-To-Repeat:
mksnap_ffs /usr /usr/some/path/some/file

... let a few days pass ...
... forget the filename ...
... try to get rid of the snapshot ...

>Fix:
Since the kernel maintains the snapshots, it should be easy for the kernel
to report the filenames in some way.
