This breaks backward compatbility. Update only if you understand that you must not use the old fsck with the new kernel ever. Explicit instructions for doing so not provided to a) encourage people to fix the problem and b) encournage the less technically competent to not update past this point. There are also problems using the dirpref updated disks on old kernels, so you have been warned. Is going in shortly. Typos/corrections to me by the end of the day.
