>Description:
	There appears to be a memory leak in lfs_cleanerd.
	After some stress-testing of LFS (over the course of a couple
	of days), the process has grown considerable:

USER   PID %CPU %MEM   VSZ  RSS TT  STAT STARTED       TIME COMMAND
root   278  5.0 26.6 130832 69008 ??  S    Wed07PM   77:20.72 lfs_cleanerd

	The file system in question is approx. 6GB in size.

	
>How-To-Repeat:
	Run "bonnie -s 2000" in a loop over, and leave it running for
	two days straight.  (I've also added a loop which extracts and
	removes the NetBSD-1.4.1 source tar files, and so far at least
	the stability hasn't been anything to complain about.)


>Fix:
	Don't know.  Find and remove memory leak. :-)
