	Humm, I don't know if I undestand you. Ben always marks his
	kernel with a new EXTRAVERSION variable (see the top level
	Makefile), when he puts the code on his stable rsync tree.

	And he also puts a README.BENH file containg the descriptions
	that he made to his tree, which are not yet incorporated on
	Marcelo's tree.

	If you really need a patch (for some reason), you could diff
	Ben's kernel against a vanilla kernel. Or am I missing
	something?

	I think that Michel Daenzer is using these patches for some
	time now (and he seems to be a supporter of xfs also).


	[]s, Roger...
