Apropos -- is it possible to reduce the XFS footprint (as a module) by throwing 
in some magic compiler options? I already compile it without debugging option, 
still it's about 500K in size. Of course I do realize XFS is an extremely 
powerful (and therefore non-trivial) filesystem but if I remember correctly 
reiser is only 200K in size.

Thanks!
