According to Russell it may be need, but he'll probably need a newer
version than the one check-ed in once he resyncs.  And he'll have his
own support dir with the rest of the BSD code.

The xfs-dev also fortunately doesn't have the modular quota code.  So
for both these I'd suggest removing them from the ptools tree, too.


Also

doesn't seem to be needed.  None of those symbols seems to be used by
either dmapi or xfsidbg, the only two modules using xfs symbols in the
tree.
