OK, kernel 2.6.10-1.1149_FC4xenU, got GFS to compile with a minor patch:

-----------------------------------------

        }

        kfree(line);

GFS loads and I can make the file system, no worries. However, mounting still
doesn't work, unless lock_nolock is used (which is kinda pointless for what I'm
trying to do):

-----------------------------------------
mount -v -t gfs /dev/sda2 /gfs
GFS: Trying to join cluster "lock_gulm", "cluster:gfs"
lock_gulm: Unknown symbol in6addr_loopback
lock_harness:  can't find protocol lock_gulm
GFS: can't mount proto = lock_gulm, table = cluster:gfs, hostdata =
mount: No such file or directory
-----------------------------------------

I'm guessing recompile of the xenU kernel is in order to get the correct symbols
exported out of ipv6?
