Al Viro has the fix for this in the for-next branch of his vfs-2.6 git
tree, as commit ID 72a43d63: "ext3/4 with synchronous writes gets
wedged by Postfix".  I pinged Al previously about pushing this as a
regression fix for 2.6.30, but never got a response.  At this point we
might as well wait for it to go into the 2.6.31 merge window, and then
we can ask for it to go into the 2.6.30.y and 2.6.29.y stable trees.
