I'm running Centos 5.3 also and it supports tap:aio, but disabling direct
io mode doesn't work with GlusterFS. Even they do lots of backporting I
assume it's still missing something. RHEL 5.4 should include Fuse aswell
so I hope that makes a difference.

Thanks. I'll take a look at it and let's see if it helps :)
