I'm rather annoyed with the fact that vnd cannot stack atop a raw disk
device, so I'd much prefer the ccd version.  (If I want an encrypted
partition, it should be a *partition*, dammit, not a container file.  :)

[for the ccd version]

If you want to put the diffs up for FTP, after you've verified that striping
and so forth still work, please do, and post the URL on tech-kern.  (Though
we do tend to prefer uuencoded tarballs or raw "diff -u" for submitting via
a PR.)

Well, I'd presume that RAIDframe would be more reliable for this.  Also,
NetBSD's vfs layer has changed its locking behavior significantly from
FreeBSD, so you need to be sure to get that right.  So "feel free to merge
it," if you want.  Good code submissions are always welcome....
