  Log:
  Add a hack (ported from NetBSD) to support Sun disk labels.
  This code works by converting the Sun label to a struct disklabel, which
  is probably even the right thing for reading a label. The original
  checksum is taken over, so that the label source can be distinguished.
  
  The NetBSD code to wrap a BSD-style disklabel into the Sun disklabel has been
  deleted for now - don't know whether that is really desirable, after all Sun
  disklabels could just be used always (BSD disklabels are going to have
  problems with PROM compatability).  The dsinit() call in diskopen() has been
  #ifdef'ed out for now, this will be changed to use the minimal slice struct
  in case of dsinit() failure.
