Once you mount with inode64, you can't go back.

I'm not sure which applications are "broken", but I use inode64 for a 
backup server where lots of Linux boxes connect to over NFS, and a Samba 
for Windows PCs which has inode64, and at least didn't see any problem 
over the years. That doesn't mean there isn't a problem, of course ;-)
