Same problem.

Well that did the trick:
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on

Does this mean there's a bug in Mkfs 1.45? Or in netbsd itself? Why
didn't fsck pick up on a discrepancy (could data written to this
partition before I newfs'd it gotten corrupted)?

Ah, I am using tcsh. Didn't think of that! Sorry for the false alarm.
Thanks for the help! I'll submit a bug report.
