So how, Eric, would that help, say, SuSE users -- which the XFS website makes 
special note to point out that there's a specific agreement in place to 
support.  Even SLES users vice openSUSE, though the XFS.org website doesn't 
make that distinction.

I'm sticking with "those are kernel package versions", and I was yelled
at the other day because I was interested in things that weren't "mainline
kernel versions".  RHEL kernels are the *best available example* of "not
a mainline kernel version", so I find these conflicting reports most
conflicting.

"Mainline".  Which was not my choice of term.
