All Linux distributions except RedHat and derivatives (CentOS,
Fedora) come with XFS included.

Fedora comes with XFS included for a long time.  And even RHEL5 comes
with XFS kernel support, although on x86_64 and only supported if you
sign over your first born to Red Hat.  I'm sure CentOS will have a more
liberal policy for the same codebase given that they support external
XFS modules for a long time.

Wow, hell froze over. I never understood why redhat refused to include
XFS for so long, and simply decided to ditch redhat and derivatives
ages ago (no xfs? no mp3? grotesque rpm dependancies? you must be
friggin kidding).

Red Hat and Fedora can't ship the patented mp3 codec.  And enterprise 
distributions routinely choose a subset of kernel options that they can 
support well for their customers.

But now I'm getting OT, so probably won't reply further.  :)
