: Perry has reported the same thing.  I haven't noticed that.

I find it on CVS updates on my softdep'd netbsd src fs:
  /dev/wd0h on /usr/netbsd type ffs (noexec, nosuid,
	nocoredump, noatime, soft dependencies, NFS exported, local)
	
My suspicion was that it's related to chuq's vnode fixes.  I haven't
investigated yet.  Anybody tried to pinpoint a time yet?
