I've tried to mount MacOSX UFS splices using YDL 2.2 which never worked 
correctly.  I think that part of the problem is that DiskUtil doesn't 
lay down proper a BSD disklabel so the mount code gets cofused.  This may 
have changed in 10.2/ydl-2.3 or I may not be remembering things 
correctly.  I'm sure I probably bitched about it here at the time, you 
might be able to find it in the archives.
