Hi Mark,

I am curious just for completeness of the record about how recent kernels
behave here. (I don't expect they'll be any different since there haven't been
any real fixes since v2.6.32-rc1 as far as I can tell.)  In particular, can you
still use the tape streamer without crashing or lockups, and does it still
truncate files when you try to copy them with dd?

Also, can you bisect[1] to find the particular change that introduced the bug?
(That would make it easier to find a fix, for example by backing that change
out.)

Thanks,
Jonathan
