Lots of interesting discussion! Thanks all.
Broadly I think I can summarise to the following options:
1. The existing critical_filesystems_zfs rc.conf variable, which
mixes ZFS configuration in both rc.conf and with ZFS itself.
2. Add ZFS "critical" properties for filesystems and mount tho

I use rlogin/rlogind on my pc532. Never thought to use telnetd! I do
use the telnet c

Hi folks,
Should you be allowed to call dirname(3) on the results of a previous
dirname(3) call?
On NetBSD 8:
thoreau 49994> cat dirtest.c
#include

Hi folks,
Every now and then I've seen vi report something like
Error: move: l(39 + 0) c(90 + 0)
and I've tracked it down to the way that _cursesi_addwchar() and
_cursesi_waddbytes() interact in src/lib/libcurses/addbytes.c .
_cursesi_addwchar() checks to see if the current position is
