  No, I don't run xfstests for udf since there are only minimal changes
to udf these days and the problems tend to be more in compatibility with
various udf formats (since udf has about four ways how to do each thing and
you can decide which way your implementation does it which gets hairy when
you have to read all these combinations). But it's an interesting idea to
try running xfstests on UDF. I actually have the verifier so I should be
able to make it run...
