	I'm about to increase the number of drives monitored by
our VAX 4.3BSD+NFS system from the generic four to seven or so by
changing the define

#define	DK_NDRIVE	4

to 7 (or perhaps 8).  The code appears to autoconfigure itself
properly without further hacking, as does iostat(1).  Does anyone
have any caveats or dire predictions?  (I realize this is a rather
conservative question, but why not?)
