All very interesting, except that, since the merge of the FFSv2 code,
newfs/mkfs.c contains pp->p_cpg = sblock.fs_fpg;

So the field contains the bottom 16 bits of the number of fragments
in a 'cylinder group' (which are no longer cylinder aligned!)

I suspect the person who imported the code forgot to update the docuentation.

The size of teh cylinder groups created by newfs doesn't depend on info
from the disklabel any more.
