(read_filesystem_list) [MOUNTED_VMOUNT]: Detect any
error from mntctl. Use mntctl's return value to drive the entry-processing loop, since we can't rely on the value of the vmt_length member in the last entry. On some systems doing so could result in an infinite loop. Based in part on a patch from Mike Jetzer.
