Hey folks, I'm taking a look at the diffs that Luoqi has posted in the development directory on ftp.freebsd.org, and I tried patching them to my system... and it worked???? Clean patches? Whoa! Armed with this bit of euphoria, I'm tempted to recompile the kernel and try it. What happens now? Does it just "know" that I'm mounting a Win95 partition and Do The Right Thing? Or do I need to do something special? How crazy would it be to add this (or the other msdosfs diff someone came up with) to -STABLE for the impending release? It may be experimental, but our msdosfs has always been sort of...well...experimental anyway. :-) Wondering out loud again.
