I don't see any reason to remove them given that it's only about 15 extra lines of code. But if you care enough to get rid of them we probably need multiple years of actuall warnings emmited when used before actually removing them. I would be very surprised if there aren't same users that wouldn't argue very vocally against their removal. _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
