You hit on something that's always irked me a bit... we tend to toss out
'page' and 'block' (and sometimes even 'buffer') randomly when referring
to different things that are keyed to BLCKSZ; perhaps we should pick one
as the standard? I know all of us know what we're talking about, but I
suspect this could be confusing to users.
