why not do this at a level below the fs.  venti is write once.  so
after a fossil dump, the skinny on the arena offsets and the score
of the superblock (or whatever fossil calls it) could be relayed
to the mirror site which could pull (or be pushed) the updated
arena(s).  recover (or whatever fossil calls it) the mirror fossil
from the new superblock and you're done.
