Great. That's the assurance I was looking for. :)

I actually posted a patch against reiserfsprogs-3.6.20 that reserves the
same fields. It also implements the use of those fields. I have an
updated version that treats timestamps in the future as suspect and
forces a check. I'll post the update later today.

If there's interest in releasing a reiserfsprogs 3.6.21, I have some
patches that we've maintaining locally for a while I'd like to submit
for inclusion. Also, I don't think the code base would hurt from a
whitespace removal run. :)
