Ok, thanks, we'll take a look at this.

However, I am not sure, that reiserfs will be actively
harden against such attacks in future: it wasn't a task
of high priority even at the best times of Namesys.
Another reason is that reiserfs (v3) doesn't have efficient
means for it. Disadvantages of reiserfs design were taken
into consideration of reiser4 filesystem: it is planned to
create a special "protected" format 4.1.X for commodity
hardware. This format will include support of ECC
signatures, etc.. that will allow code to not bloat with
tons of checks.

Edward.
