Metze, David could you test it and let us know if it helps?Just to verify: could it be that mfsymlink is already broken in 3.9.6-301.fc19? At least links created with fedora 18 are no longer readable there. Newly created links seems to work fine (at least till now). Greets MarcusYes, 3.9.6 has the patch that broke it. What matters is how the (in memory) inode is created after mounting. If you first run across an mfsymlink with a readdir() call, then you'll get an inode that's "stuck" as a regular file. If you instead do something like stat() it before ever running a readdir over the containing directory, it should work just fine. This patch probably is probably reasonable for stable, given that the original one also went there. Steve, want to mark as such?
@Jeff, could you please do me a favor and let me know, when this is stable/made it to Fedora, as we are in need of that patch.
Thanks Marcus
