Builds from that tree have now been running it without incident for
9 hours overnight on five machines.  Before setting that off, I gave
them each an hour of fsx under memory pressure, some ext2, some ext4:
again, nothing to report.  Plus I have confidence in Yongqiang's four
patches from running the test with them on rc4 for 3 days on two
machines.  Looks good to me - thanks to you all!
