You might do wise in checking the newer acl tools and xfs patches. The work
is ongoing.
Is this a 2.4.18-xfs from CVS or the split patches?
We just released the 2.4.19 split patches although there are some small
problems cropping up that might prove to be wiser to get CVS (which has a
fix merged).

AFAIK that bug got fixed some time ago in 2.4.18 although it is not
"supported". Another option would be checking out the 2.4.19-aa tree which
has some VM fixes/tuneups etc.
