Well, it was pretty simple for me to fix locally, but it'll come back the
next time I check out a full build :-)

I'm still trying to find out where -CURRENT is right now in terms of
stability and what does/doesn't work.  As a result this is pretty germane to
me at the moment, but I don't have commit access and don't understand why
those changes were made anyway (which means I wouldn't back them out without
knowing).

I've seen enough commentary on the hackers and current lists to think that
perhaps its not a good idea to consider -current a stable piece of code
right now..... am I right in this?  In particular, the place I usually run
into trouble is the NFS code and its stability.
