Kris, I'll take a look at all these problems.  Which version of FreeBSD were
you trying?  I've not tried 5.0 yet; I don't even have an installed machine
for it.

To port my templates to 5.0 properly, I'll have to check for any VFS changes
b/t 4.0 and 5.0.  (I'm surprised, but pleased, that it seems to work
somehow.)

BTW, can you send me a small patch for the fixes to get 5.0 working?

Thanks,
Erez.
