There’ s white growth on dead roots of frost-killed Viburnum (winter 2010) Is this harmful especially to young Variegated Privet planted last Spring? To the soil in general?

The fungus growing on cut stumps of dead viburnum is just rotting the wood, a fungus that feeds on dead wood, and not a pathogen of living tissue, so it is not a danger to the privet or other shrubs.
