I'm terribly sorry, but I've fallen two weeks behind on my email. Happily,
at least in this case, this means that I've committed changes to main that
address this issue by calling the right resize functions for geom when we
get namespace change events from the AENs we post to the drive. I missed
this kind offer of help, so hopefully it was done correctly so your poking
around at it reveals nothing broken. But if it does turn up something
amiss, please let me know.
