Oh, sure, NOW you tell me!
No doubt you're right; I guess I was thinking that since there was a series
of patches marked "SLES11" in 2.0.0.1, that was the closest place to start
from. Live and learn, I guess. On the upside, I now know more about ext4,
ldiskfs, and the Lustre build system than I did before :-/
