Hi Scott,

I read that 5.3-RELEASE shall be released *this* weekend. Nothing 
against it, but in the moment gvinum RAID5 is still broken for 
5.3-STABLE as well as 5.3-RCx as I suppose.

The fix is committed to HEAD for over 10 days now and it solves my 
problems (under 5.3-STABLE) as well as any other peoples problems I 
read about on -current.

I cannot imagine to deliver/sell CDs with 5.3-RELEASE on it with a 
broken gvinum RAID5 where the fix is available for (roughly) 2 weeks 
now.

I strongly urge you to reconsider that. Perhaps you ask Lukas Ertl 
(le at freebsd.org) directly about that issue.

The files in question are geom_vinum_plex.c v1.12 and geom_vinum_var.h v 
1.5.
