Well... yeah... but specifying 1 1 really doesn't make sense because
softupdates only exist in UFS2+ ;)...
Thought: why not just make the last `column' feed into a program as
options, like '-j enable -U', '-O1', etc...? Seems a bit more portable
and tunable ;)...
It's a simple enough patch though, and looks ok.
Thanks,
