However this also has me wondering why FFS support hasn't been
included in the Linux kernel. I would have thought that with the
need for a journaling filesystem FFS would have been adopted,
especially with the BSD code available. Is there some issue that
has prevented this?

FFS by itself does not imply journaling, Linux does support FFS
already (read-only, write support is there but experimental).
