Hmm, I just tried mounting something with ganesha and that broke because it received fid=1730858632 in a TATTACH request, so something in the patch series made some big fid happens. If you say this isn't intented though this needs debugging, I'm glad I brought this up :P (Note that it really should be fine if it is random within the pool, I have notified the current developpers of the problem) -- Dominique
