Witness this (after yet another fake disk crash):

vinum -> ls -v local.p0.s0
Subdisk local.p0.s0:
                Size:      31457129472 bytes (29999 MB)
                State: reviving
                Plex local.p0 at offset 0 (0  B)

which indicates that the parity surely is not correctly recalculated during
the revive.

Greg, can you tell me if this is correct behaviour?
