Noone complains that people stir things up every now and then.. at least then the developers are reminded of the open PRs (or at least I hope so). ;-) Yet since developer time is a finite resource, I guess they have to enforce a priority ordering (I wouldn't count this particular bug as top priority, it can be easily circumvented by explicit unmounting, and I wouldn't rely on the robustness of the ext2 filesystem on FreeBSD anyways, and, isn't it read-only? I've only used it so far to copy stuff from it, and had been bitten by a 2Gig filesize limit then but that might be fixed by now, so things do indeed move there.) mkb.
