  URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/286395
  
  Log:
   Fix the dynamic VHD format to work with qemu. The size of the disk
   is taken to match the geometry and only when the geometry is max'd
   out, is the actual recorded size taken.
  
   Note that qemu has the same logic for the fixed VHD format. However
   that is known to conflict with Microsoft Azure, where the recorded
   size of the image is what counts.
  
  
  I'll test this out on the next 11-CURRENT builds.  (Based on the content
  of the commit log, it's unclear to me if you received my last reply on
  this topic, so if you didn't let me know.)
 
 I tested this in Azure: the fixed format VHD hasn't been
 changed.
 

Doh.  Sorry, misread the log.  (And all these formats...!)  :)
