thanks, that worked.

the make xconfig part for xfs seems not to behave in consistent way.

I do 

make mrproper
make xconfig

then click 'Y' for SGI XFS file system, you will see that 'Y' is
automatically turned on for the following 3 entries below it
(Page buffer support, Page buffer locking, Generic AVL).

But the 'use PAGEBUF for metadata I/O' is NOT turned on. Now click 'Y'
for 'use PAGBUF for metadata I/O'. 

Now click 'N' for "SGI XFS file system support", you will see 
that 'use PAGBUF for metadata I/O' is turned off, but the Page 
buffer support, Page buffer locking, Generic AVL remain turned
on showing 'Y' (bug).

Now, click 'Y' again for "SGI XFS file system support", now you will 
see "use PAGEBUF for metadata I/O" turn back to 'Y'. Which is not
the same behavior as before. (bug)

If "use PAGEBUF for mertadata I/O" is needed for clean build when
saying 'Y' to SGI file support, then it should automatically get
turned on to 'Y' first time.
