I had the same problem. I applied the patch for this against 2.1.5[89]
which was widely posted. The patch made it compile but it doesn't work
(any quota operation such as `quota` or `repquota` results in a "D" state
process).

I doubt that I'll be able to help more. I could give you the patch I
used, but I really doubt that it'll do you any good.
