	I don't have time to test this right now, but see also PR bin/30959.

  Modified files:
    sbin/newfs           mkfs.c newfs.c 
  Log:
  Add some more checks to newfs so that it will not build filesystems
  that the kernel will refuse to mount. Specifically it now enforces
  the MAXBSIZE blocksize limit. This update also fixes a problem where
  newfs could segment fault if the selected fragment size was too large.
