Precedence: bulk

I know someone (Robert Nordier?) has been working on a replacement for msdosfs.
But my patience ran out after more than one year of waiting, so I took up
the matter myself. After about two weekends of work, I got a set of working
code. If anyone's interested, I have uploaded the diff to ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/
pub/FreeBSD/incoming/msdosfs-vfat.diff.gz. Since I have been working on a
2.2-stable machine, the diff was taken against the 2.2.5 release. I haven't
done much testing on this, so use at your own risk. Please send feedbacks
to luoqi@watermarkgroup.com. And Merry Chrismas to everyone.
