That doesn't mean we should aim for the right fix upstream. I don't really mind pushing patches like yours as a last resort when dealing with unrepsonsive or disagreeing maintainers like we had to do in the past, but trying to push the workaround without even attemping the proper fix is a bit sad. _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
