I may be out of place here but Pawel did state he would be implementing 
SEEK_HOLE and SEEK_DATA on UFS. When that change makes it in, this 
becomes useless, correct? As Pawel stated __EXTENSIONS__ might make a 
bit more sense since these changes are not part of the CDDL additions 
nor are they part of ZFS. They are simply extensions the OS defines.

Those are just my two cents, feel free to ignore them as FreeBSD 
development isn't my area of expertise.
