Index: sbin/fsck/pass2.c 4.3BSD-Reno

Description:
	There is an uninitialized variable in the version of fsck(8)
	distributed with 4.3BSD-Reno which can cause fsck to destroy
	the file system instead of repair it.  Note, this problem is
	ONLY found in 4.3BSD-Reno systems.

Fix:
	Apply the following patch:
