Hi,

I've been searching for the functionality of telling mdmfs (in my case 
via fstab) not to do newfs on my file-backed mfs. Browsing the cvs I can 
see that -P, doing exactly what I and many others have wanted, has been 
added :)

It seems it's only been added to the current/main though, and I was 
wondering when we can see it in stable? I'm tracking stable, and usually 
don't like to patch things that much, so it'd be great to see -P in 
stable as opposed to having to patch the source myself, even though it's 
a minor job.

Thank you.

// Leo
