Right, sorry to imply that I was using hjfs for backups.  I use hjfs
yet don't have trust that it will always work.  That's where venti
comes in--I can restore (and have restored) to an hjfs partition from
a venti backup.  I trust venti more than hjfs.  I'd be interested in
using fossil + venti but that has already been brought up on this
list/9fans multiple times.
