It's broken. I had to do some repairwork to get my /usr back up just
moments ago. The May 6 kernel and userland from ~17:30 UTC hangs at
boot while trying to start vinum (scan disks). May 1 kernel and May
6 userland will not play together, complains about some ioctl. I had
to boot Windows and download older vinum(8) binary from JPSNAP
livetree. I don't want to see such things in the supposedly _BETA_
software. This isn't BETA, it's some weird breed if I can name it.
Ugh.
