1. I'm still not sure that it's true that they're supposed to go
   along with the boot blocks.

2. Even if so, I'm even less sure that adding them to the
   `a' filesystem at disklabel -B time is an idea which
   could be employed without inducing an understandable
   "shock! horror!" reaction from users of disklabel.
