NO.  We've been thru this not that long ago.

We should leave the disklable symlink forever -- it gives us a consistant
command interface across all our platforms.  I've found NetBSD very
anonying in the past that the labeling command has a different name
across different platforms.  The symlink causes no harm.  Why are you on
such a war path to kill it??
