While you're at it, Bill...

The main reason I stayed with unfsd instead of knfsd even before the dcache
screwed it up was that knfsd would no longer let you make two exports from the
same fs. For example, if I want to export /home/ftp and /home/httpd
simultaneously, it won't let me.

This wants to be fixed for 2.2, if it isn't already. Could you have a look at
it while you've got your fingers in the pie?

On a different topic, I'd like to back mkj's call for 64-bit inode numbers,
because we should be able to make ncpfs NFS-exportable with them.
