:= Why not write a 'mount_md' program to do all the magic based on fstab
:= options, similar to what mount_mfs used to do for MFS? A 'mount_md'
:= would give us instant integration into existing kernel mechanisms,
:= including startup (/etc/rc) mechanisms.

I suppose you could make a hardlink between mount_md and mount_mfs, sure.
Whatever the case, 'mdconfig' is the wrong place to put it.
(this whole thing is predicated on someone writing a mount_md wrapper
for MD that mimics the options mount_mfs accepts, for compatibility).
