 Thanks for your report and suggested patch. The inability to use block
 devices for storage has been an ongoing concern for the iscsi-target port.
 
 I have forwarded this bug report on to Alistair Crooks, the author and
 maintainer of the netbsd-iscsi package for review. In my opinion the
 patch is better suited for inclusion into the upstream package. If he is
 unwilling or unable to patch the source I will consider it as a local
 patch for the FreeBSD derivative. Stay tuned.
