Yes, I used smitty and that must have been it. The old mount point is not
there now, so I must have cleaned it up after the fact. It all makes sense
now.

Thanks Bruce and Simon.

I did think of this after I posted and yes: if it was a rename of a
filesystem rather than simply a directory, you're correct. Not just smit,
but anything using the chfs command. These also update the VGDA, not just
/etc/filesystems, of course.
