FAT filesystems do not support sparse files, and consequently on FAT hosts the
40 GB disk size specified by the base box must actually be allocated in its
entirety for the VM to work.

My hunch is that this is both (a) sufficiently uncommon and (b) sufficiently
far up the dependency chain that we don't need to have an elaborate fix for
this in place. But documenting the limitation and providing a link to
documentation for working around this limitation would be nice.
