I really wish I could remember where in the code this got fixed, but
it is sort of a needle in a haystack to find. Looking at the mail
archives, there does not appear to be a specific fix for this, it
was more that other changes in the filesystem affected when we sync
data to disk, and this fixed the problem.

I think steve bumped into this during the multiple blocksize work. I remember something like this from the changelogs or the list.


And backporting that is near impossible without fetching the entire tree. Can you try and see if the CVS makes your problem go away?

Backporting fixes is not something the SGI developers have time for. If people have problem with releases we recommend using the CVS tree if it works for them or wait untill the next release. Whenever that is ;)
