Yes, that was me. But maybe they're /usr that they want to restore isn't in
dump(8) format. I dunno- this is why I asked. It seems to me on the face of it
a reasonable thing to have- basic device manipulation available w/o /usr. But
there's no particular end to the number of things you *could* want to be
availble if someone takes a Mossberger to your /usr. So, I'm of two minds
about this.
