	I've now updated the patch series on top of our merge window
code.  This includes modifying xattr.c.  I've tested the regular code,
but I'm hoping Tao or Tiger or someone can help me by testing the xattrs
with this patch set.
	Since I'm not at the office, I don't have the send-email working
to well.  You can see the new series on oss at
