Is this handled by fsck/setup.c,v 1.17.2.4 commit?

: revision 1.17.2.4
: date: 2002/06/24 05:10:41;  author: dillon;  state: Exp;  lines: +26 -56
: MFC 1.30.  Check only the fields we know should be the same between the
: primary and alternate superblocks, so fsck doesn't barf on new features
: added to UFS in later releases.
