I hope this patch will make it into FC2.  I have a lot of machines that 
are running on reiserfs, and can't easily be switched.  This is for the 
obvious reason that reorganising the filesystems is time consuming. 
More importantly, though, there is an application which was developed 
specifically with reiserfs in mind, and creates huge numbers of small 
files.  It would be difficult to run this under ext3.
