This is counter to all my experience of dealing with gmirror -- it's
carefully designed so that the metadata it writes to the drive
*doesn't* interfere with the filesystem.  While it is always a good
idea to have backups, I do not believe that destroying and recreating
the filesystem should be necessary.

	Cheers,
