Does OpenBSD provide any facilities similar to FreeBSD's ufs (or maybe
it's ufs2 only, not sure off of the top of my head) filesystem
snapshots, or any other facilite for complete, reliable backups of live
filesystems?

I'll piggyback another quick question, seeing as it also has something
to do with 'live files.'  Are there any circumstances under which an
update to a system file are not written to disk, if the filesystem is in
use?  Well, I assume the file could be locked in some way, for
modification.  I suppose my real question is, say, for instance, with
the recent zlib patch, do you have to go single-user to make absolutely
sure that the library is updated on disk?
