Hi Poul,

I noticed I had an older version of spec_vnops.c (1.205), so I 
cvsupped again and build kernel, this gave me the same msgbuf error, 
but with different values. Then I applied your patch and the error 
messgae disapeared, but still my vinum doesn't come up.

vinum -> list
2 drives:
D b                     State: up       /dev/ad6s1e     A: 77903/77903 
MB (100%)
D a                     State: up       /dev/ad4s1e     A: 77903/77903 
MB (100%)

0 volumes:
0 plexes:
0 subdisks:

If you need additional info, I'll be glad to provide such.
