     17 ----------------
     18 
     19 - size estimation is still out (need to take into account indirect blocks!)
     20 
     21 - mkfs.c parameter checking when density is rather high or low (dumps core)
     22   e.g, a large directory with a small number of files dumps core with a
     23   floating exception i.e, density is too high such as 21886635 or too
     24   low such as 30.
     25   update: lukem, 2001/01/23.  not sure if this is still an issue.

     29 -------
     30 
     31 - consider replacing ffs_balloc() et al with own code that doesn't
     32   need hacked-up buf.c code
     33 
     34 - whacking on newfs/mkfs.c to allow .PATH-ing directly into makefs(8).
     35   this would involve passing all of mkfs()'s parameters in a single
     36   struct rather than a lot of global vars, etc.
