Xfstest #5 broke because of a change in the VFS, which now allows up
to 40 nested symlinks.  So that's a matter of your xfstests being too
old.

The version of xfstests I've been using on my KVM box is too old to
have test 232, so I haven't been able to test it.  I've been trying to
use a newer version of xfstests, but xfstests doesn't build on either
Ubuntu 10.04 (LTS), Debian stable, or Debian unstable, due to the use
of newer XFS ioctl's and xfsctl's that aren't defined in the system
header files.  The fact that it doesn't work on Ubuntu LTS and Stable
is not that surprising, I suppose, but I was a bit disappointed that
it doesn't work on Debian unstable.

Since I don't have a Fedora system handy --- which header file are
things like "struct xfs_flock64" supposed to be defined these days?
