But once we start using project quotas with the > bit set the above sounds fine. Agreed - we can't set the bit by default until the kernel has suppoerted the feature for some time. A user who upgrades from a kernel that doesn't support separate quotas can't downgrade if the bit is automatically set if there are problems (and the problems requiring downgrade might be completely unrelated to XFS).
