Have you any idea on this? I wondered about that, too, but hadn't bothered looking into it yet. I'm suspicious that we initialize p.thread with INIT_THREAD, which would obviously wipe it out. > Also, since you have a good test FS (Fedora), can I send you the updated > versions I put out / can you test them?

Other than that (and the O_FORCE succeeded message), it seems to be working fine. > I've just uploaded 2.6.15-bs1-tls for people to test. What I grabbed is what was there this morning.
