Oh, right, I completely forgot about that.

I think it's generally a good idea to stick with one server implementation
on all platforms since that way everyone runs the same (tested) code, but
I seem to recall the migration from inode to namei is pretty heinous (as
in you probably can't do it in place and need to bring up another server
and move everything).
