Yes, that's a workaround I had in mind.

I can't see any problem there, if the mdmfs program is compatible
with mount_mfs.  I mean, the manpage even explicitly says, "the mdmfs
utility is designed to be a work-alike and look-alike of the
deprecated mount_mfs(8)."  Why then the different name, especially
with the result that it can no longer be used with fstab?  I mean,
the old mount_mfs doesn't seem to exist anymore so there would be no
naming conflict.
