There's talk on -current that even including ad* and da* by default
might not be safe, because of zip/jaz type things which might wear out.
Also since it keeps an open file descriptor on the disk at all times
would that prevent ejecting the disk, or is ejecting only prevented
while it's mounted?  I'm not sure...

I'm tempted to think the default diskcheckd.conf shouldn't check
anything, checking everything by default seems to be causing trouble.

Poul-Henning, what's your view?
