Good.
(I presume you would have been using the headers from a previous install-dev).

I'm not sure I understand your question.
Are you asking if you can use the latest xfs commands from the
cvs tree with a kernel which is not the latest ?
If so...
I would say generally, yes.
I'm involved with EAs, ACLs and xfsdump/xfsrestore and they
should work with earlier kernels - however, some bugs have
been found in the kernel over time during development so it would
be better to have the latest kernel.
Ciao,
