A number of disk-utilities like 'df', 'fsck', 'mkfs' and 'mkswap' were
broken by (I believe) 0.96a2. This was caused by changes necessary for VFS.
The (very crude) hack I used was to use the include files "fs.h', 'minix-fs.h'
and 'mm.h' from 0.96a1 for these programs. The correct solution of course
would be to write versions of these programs for the new file-systems.
