Well that is indeed more civil language, if somewhat revisionist, since
I distinctly remember being flamed by you from the word go. Once
again, thankyou for the catch. A fairly trivial oversight that would
have been caught sooner of later. As for the typedef thing, that was
just a spelling flame, admit it.

Truly, the way you were yelling I thought you had picked up a
fundamental flaw instead of a simple misplaced line of code.

Now about that block writeout deadlock... it doesn't just affect my
code, it basically breaks Linux as a storage platform, among other
things.
