  I just noticed that newfs cores with a bus error, so I suspect this is
a result of the floating point emulation bug.

  Also, there seem to be major problems with MSDOSFS:
mkdir newdir
mkdir: newdir: Is a directory [but it just created it...]

tar xvf distfi~1.tar
tar: cannot change owner of distfiles to uid 234 gid 0 : No such file or
directory [but I don't have a uid 234...]

  and tar proceeds to create distfi~1 - dist~XXX directories until it is
killed.
