With system after a make world from current (of Fri 18th Feb),
While doing a:
	cd /usr/src/etc
	make floppies
it blew up with
	disklabel -w -r -B -b /usr/mdec/fdboot  -s /usr/mdec/bootfd fd0 fd1440
	newfs -b  4096 -c 80 -f 512 -i 8192 -m 0 -o space  rfd0 fd1440
	Warning: calculated sectors per cylinder (4096) disagrees with disk label (36)
	Block size and bytes per inode restrict cylinders per group to 6.
I recompiled & installed sbin & disklabel, to no avail,
The disklabel command confirms floppy is set to 36 
	(I'm using a 1.4M flop, so OK)
I'm using an old newfs binary for now.
Perhaps I have an inconsistent mirror collection,
or worse, maybe freebsd has bad newfs sources ?
Anyone else see this problem ?
