If I run restore in an NFS filesystem, it dumps core; the offending place
is an mmap() call. Kernel and utils are all 1.2B. I'm planning on send-
pr'ing this, but thought I should drop a heads-up.
It doesn't seem to have problems extracting into a native filesystem;
I did:
# restore ivfb /dev/nrst1 112
and it SEGV'd on me.
Should make for a good scavenger hunt.
