It's not clear from what you're saying, but will this cause problems with
the statfs stuff?  I've been under the impression that a 5.1->5.2 upgrade
requires me to build and boot a new kernel before I can install a new world
-- it's not clear if you're saying I need to build /and install/ a new world
before building a kernel, or if I just need to build world...
