The year is 2010.  reiserfs was marked as unsupported with this commit:

   commit 4ba6b2226f860e850112b15d61559dca3da04167
   Author: Mike Fulbright <msf@xxxxxxxxxx>
   Date:   Fri Jul 13 20:16:32 2001 +0000

       as per kernel team orders, turning off support for reiserfs

We've always taken the stance that we've got support, but we don't care
about any bug reports related to it.  Either we support something, or we
don't.  Should we keep pretending a little longer than nine years?
