I was just running through my 'make release' last night, and saw when doFS.sh
was performing a disklabel on a vn device (the boot floppy), it returned the
error:

ioctl DIOCWLABEL: Operation not supported by device

Now I understand that the primary purpose of this operation is to load the boot
blocks on to the floppy image. I guess my question is whether this is actually
working, or whether its failing for some strange reason? Comments?
