I know nothing about vinum and only a little about GEOM, so I have
no opinion on which should be fixed to work with the other, and
I'm reluctant to get drawn into that battle anyway.

However, I do think that if it isn't easy to get the two of them to
work together nicely, then we should enforce the above options in
the source code.  Ie, if someone tries to compile a kernel with
both GEOM and vinum turned on, then the compile should fail with
some suitable error message.
