I think that we should use merge the two spares at the start of the
structure into a 64-bit f_bfree field. Rename the existing f_bfree
to f_old_bfree and set it to the same value as f_bfree if it will fit,
otherwise the largest number that will fit (ox7fffffff). Similarly,
take the two spare longs at the end and merge them into a 64-bit
b_avail field. Rename f_bavail to f_old_bavail and set as with
f_old_bfree. Those are the only two fields that need to grow, and
this will provide binary compatibility for existing applications.
Seem reasonable?

Kirk, with the advent of UFS2 filesystems > 2TB 
what do you think we need to do about the statfs structure in mount.h?

struct statfs {
	long    f_spare2;         /* placeholder */
	long    f_bsize;          /* fundamental filesystem block size */
	long    f_iosize;         /* optimal transfer block size */  
	long    f_blocks;         /* total data blocks in filesystem */
	long    f_bfree;          /* free blocks in fs */
[...]

In this case it is purely a printing error in sf I think, as the number
of free frags is 2^30.
but that will probably overflow on the next version of this box.
(at least become -ve)

Should we define a new entrypoint for fstat() and what should the old
entrypoint return for partitions that are > 2^32 frags in size?
