    I am one of the people who have been seeing this problem. I would be
    very surprised if it was an ext2 problem, as the only ext2 filesystem
    on my disk contains all of /boot. No programs, no news spool on ext2 -
    nada. I use reiserfs for all of that.

    But I'll see if I can get around to test pre8-2 tomorrow. right now,
    I need some sleep :-)
