um, i guess they must have forgotten it in mine.  in fact, i don't see
it in 2.4.20 either.  the first version that i can find it in is 2.5.38, and
it wasn't in 2.5.31[1].  correct me if i'm wrong, i've never used it.
i know there's been a patch available for it that's been considered stable
enough to go into the default _redhat_ kernel, but afaik the debian
folks don't patch the kernel at all for the default image (there's an
apt-gettable patch and patched image though, iirc).

[1] according to a file search for xfs on lxr.linux.no, quite possibly
the single coolest kernel-hacker's site ever made, ever.  try the
identifier search to see what i mean.
