SubjectRe: ramfs problem... (unlink of sparse file in "D" state)

Umm. No. The object of LFS stuff is so that programs that can't
handle large files don't shoot themselves in the foot. You don't
need to pass O_LARGEFILE over the protocol and knfsd doesn't need
to handle it. But with out specifying O_LARGEFILE you should be
limited to 2GB on 32bit systems.

THis means we limit all NFS file sizes to 32-bits unless we have
NFSv3? (I assume v3 is where the 64-bit file sizes comes from? or
does it predate that?)
