Debian Etch Backport of xfsprogs 2.9.8-1

Hi!

I made a xfsprogs-Backports for Debian Etch, since the xfsprogs for Etch is at 
version 2.8.11 - so fairly outdated:

http://people.teamix.net/~ms/backports/etch-backports/xfsprogs/

I would be willing to maintain this - at least until Debian Lenny is out. So 
if someone wants to sponsor an upload please tell me in case any changes are 
needed.

Important: You may need a newer kernel than the one in Debian Etch (2.6.18) in 
order to access XFS partitions that you formatted with mkfs.xfs from this 
backport. But I since it does not set lazy superblock counters by default 
since xfsprogs 2.9.7 it might just work. Otherwise better use EtchNHalf oder 
current backport kernel with it.

Ciao,

Something in the SGI mail infrastructure appears to break the GPG signature.  
It appears fine on backports-users mailing list.
