OpenAFS has a private inode table as mentioned in
<Pine.GSO.4.61-042.0503181042090.23432@johnstown.andrew.cmu.edu>
and because of this there are problems with newer kernel versions.

The same over and over again. I supposed something like this, so I'm
quite happy 1.3.82-2 works fine here.

I have no idea if a -87 is near with OpenAFS or far away, maybe that
near version could help with large file support, maybe not. I beleive in
your knowledge and jut wanted to ask if there is some progress :-) It
has been quite silent for some time.

And for gcc4 problem, uh, the backlog is gone, have to try it again...
wait...

With gcc 3.3 it compiles, with gcc4 it just ends here.
