Ahh, forgort to give some details: Machine is apple powerbook iv running
Linux 2.4.20-ben10 ppc (the stable 2.4 ppc 
Ben's Tree: the pmac stable tree
     1. To create the tree, download the latest kernel code from
        kernel.org and untar it into a direcory.
     2. Or, For an existing tree, backup your .config
     3. rsync -avz --delete rsync.penguinppc.org::linux-2.4-benh
        <directory>)

The filesystem was freshly created (today) and 10G were tarred on the
disk...

the /home partition is reiserfs (where that file is on), / is ext3

As I was using reiserfs for a quite long time on any kind of i386
hardware I guess it is a little/big endian issue.
