21- size estimation is still out (need to take into account indirect blocks!)
22
23- mkfs.c parameter checking when density is rather high or low (dumps core)
24  e.g, a large directory with a small number of files dumps core with a
25  floating exception i.e, density is too high such as 21886635 or too
26  low such as 30.
27  update: lukem, 2001/01/23.  not sure if this is still an issue.

33- consider replacing ffs_balloc() et al with own code that doesn't
34  need hacked-up buf.c code
35
36- whacking on newfs/mkfs.c to allow .PATH-ing directly into makefs(8).
37  this would involve passing all of mkfs()'s parameters in a single
38  struct rather than a lot of global vars, etc.
