Greg,

No need for redundant bladder or such craziness, simply carry a lift bag as
backup.  If you lose your BC for some reason, simply deploy your lift bag. 
you can vent via the overpressure relief valve and add air as necessary. 
The odds of losing your BC are so remote, that adding the failure points and
additional complexity inherent in a dual BC is nuts.

What is the DIR configuration for bouyancy
redundancy when not diving dry?
If it's a second set of wings, where and how
is the inflator stowed?
If this info is readily available elsewhere on the
net, please redirect me!
Thanks for your time.
