I believe the problematic change occured sometime this summer.  It
reduced my working-in-May-just-fine-thank-you system to a giant ball of
filesystem corruption that made fsck *dump core*.  

Now, -current seems to work just fine with the IBM drive I just switched
to.  Who'da thunk it.  

But, in any case, I seem to have a stable system now.  Whoopee!
