The following patch was posted to the Reiser4 list August 3 by zam.  Is
it still needed?  It solved many problems for me, making my systems able
to actually complete full Beagle indexing.

But I have not seen this patch show up in the last two mm kernel
releases.  Did something else fix it or is this patch still needed?
