o main returns int not void
o use braces to avoid potentially ambiguous else
Note: The fix to natd is potentially functional in nature since I used
the indentation as the right thing rather than the struct semantics.
Someone more familiar with the code should double check me on this one.

Update information about partition type for Vinum drives. They
*should* be of type 'vinum', but currently we still accept (and
complain about) partitions of type 'unused'. At a later date, only
'vinum' will be accepted.

so that dumps are treated by dump -w as having been done on midnight
of the day they were actually run. This makes dump -w behave as
expected for regularly scheduled daily dumps - if they all run the
same day. It makes dump -w behave strangely if you dump late in the
day and check again after midnight, but that is the lesser of two
evils.
