 I was one step ahead or behind you, right before I obtained your email, 
 I sent a reply to my patch pointing this out :)

 I sup'd the source yesterday to verify that (I remember something along 
 that line) but in my 4.5 GENERIC file, it is listed as plural, and it 
 builds fine without modification, so I just left it be :)

 Thanks for pointing out the -U option, but isn't that for a NEW filesystem?
 
 
 #man 8 newfs
 <snip>
 -U   Enables soft updates on the new filesystem
 
 I can understand pointing this out, but that is with a new filesystem, 
 and figured a need to only point out how to enable softupdates, I 
 suppose adding a &man.newfs.8 wouldn't hurt at all though :)
 
 At least I can be sure that more people are paying attention to me than 
 what credit I give hehehe
