That's what I thought when John first warned me about the bootstrap
issues.  However, we've now had "no problem here" feedback from at least
one user in each of the i386 and alpha camps.

Has anyone actually seen the bootstrap code actually cause a problem
with the new fs block/frag sizes?  I realize that there's definitely
potential for disaster, but are we going to see it in 4.5-RELEASE if
nothing is changed?

Ciao,
Sheldon.
