+       The ffs superblock issues listed below under 20040109 and 20030402
+       are now automatically addressed by the /etc/rc.d/fixsb script or by
+       sysinst when it checks a a filesystem. The manual fsck_ffs -b16 -c4
+       invocation mentioned below will continue to work and is now
+       automated by those scripts.  Note that under certain circumstances,
+       affected filesystems upgraded to a -current kernel first before
+       upgrading their userland with the fixsb and fsck_ffs fixes may
+       encounter a 'freeing free inode' panic when writing to the affected
+       filesystem, so it is a good idea to repair the filesystem as soon as
+       possible.  For more details on the fixsb script, see pr install/25138.
