By details, I meant complete details.  How to reproduce the problem,
and whether rev.1.84 and 1.88 caused the problem.  Does it happen on
other file systems?  ext2fs uses essentially the same mount -u code
as ffs, but is slightly simpler and closer to the CSRG version (for
mount -u), so it might be easier to debug and less broken.
