which I adjusted to the state of affairs five days ago. Should apply 
fuzz free to unionfs-20060221-0341.tar.gz. Will most likely need 
adjustments to the mmap era of unionfs..

See: [Unionfs] kernel mutex backwards comatibility patches

Maybe it's unwise to lock potential users off in this situation, where 
testing is most appreciated. Are there other technical implications 
(besides the minor macro hassle) for this decision?
