Hmm, I'm not versant with gdb (strace is the extent of my sophistication), so I'll try your suggestion below.

It seems that the reiserfs option parsing in 2.4.9-ac12 is foobar, as any one of "rw,suid,dev,exec,auto,nouser,async" in the options field in /etc/fstab causes the mount to fail. Also, mounting an r5-hashed reiserfs file system with the option string "hash=r5" gives this fine error:
REISERFS: Error, r5 hash detected, unable to force r5 hash
I can confirm that the following option strings give a successful mount: "conv", "hashed_relocation", "notail". I didn't feel like going through all the options possible.
Is everybody seeing this, or is specific to something about my setup, e.g. gcc version 3.0.2 20010905 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 3.0.1-3)? I'll try recompiling with gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 2.96-97.1) to check that.
Cheers, Wayne
