No, they did not :(.
But we have a similar hack (err, patch - attached for reference) for
other external block scripts that we support. Interestingly, drbd is
missing from the patch. I stumbled across this patch several months ago,
but the original author is gone and I have not had time to consider a
solution that will accommodate arbitrary external block scripts.
