     21 - size estimation is still out (need to take into account indirect blocks!)
     22 
     23 - parameter checking when density is rather high or low.
     24

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