Closer investigation reveals that I've getting this error:

laptop# fsck -B /var
background fsck lacks a snapshot

So, that explains it. The background fsck isn't running. So, any ideas
why it isn't snapshotting?

laptop# ls -ld /var/.snap
drwxrwx--- 2 root operator 512 Oct 2 12:09 /var/.snap

This message appears to be the result of fsck thinking it created a
snapshot, but not actually doing so. You might try asking over on -fs.


Thanks Brooks, I'll ask over there.
