autosynchronization is a major issue with fsck, esp. with foreground.
it totally thrashes disk, that's why i had to turn off autosync and come up
with a cron job that'd re-syncronize mirror if needed, but only if fsck
is not running.

I think, that ultimately should be handled in the base system:
do not let mirror sync and fsck collide, ever.

therefore, maybe autosync should default to off, or fsck should check if it's going
to check a synchronising mirror and suspend the synchronization for the time it runs the check?
