I've actually been thinking about multifs since at least May and
perhaps March.  I think its change-set is enough that it warrants a
release unto itself.  When we're ready for 6.04, release 6.04, merge
mutlifs, release 6.10, and probably update gnu-efi and release 6.11.
Both of these change enough that they may have large impacts and
warrant separation.

I think HPA does have the right idea.  Make a multifs branch to give
it more traction and exposure.
