Just starting in on it now.  I've cleaned up all the obvious  
inconsistencies (my main job today) but the output is still a bit  
unclear.  I suspect that it's getting confused if the contents of the  
meta-partitions and the contents of the partitions are differently  
inconsistent.  ctl_mboxlist -v doesn't indicate in its output if the  
un-referenced directory is meta-data or data.
