XFS 1.3.0 kernels and userland tools for Red Hat Linux 7.3, 8.0 and 9
can be found at http://atrpms.physik.fu-berlin.de/name/kernel/ and
http://atrpms.physik.fu-berlin.de/name/xfs/.

These kernels are based on RH latest errata for the given release,
e.g. kernels are based on 2.4.20+.

If you really want to test RH 2.4.22+ kernels with XFS 1.3.0, you can
use patched rawhide kernels at
http://atrpms.physik.fu-berlin.de/name/kernel-bleeding/

While the latter kernel also works fine on RH9, it is a test kernel,
which may spontaneously eat your disk, CPU, keyboard and the user in
front of it (at least the case is not affected ...).
