Wow, you're probably the first person ever to do that, unlucky you. Out
of sympathy I've written you this findsb program which of course I've
never had to use myself. Its not the most efficiently written program
ever
and since FreeBSD swap partitions don't have magic numbers it may be
slow,
but it seems to work, however I draw your attention to the disclaimer
in the C file. ;)

Niall
