There is a patch available which enables compilation of the avfscoda
coda with linux kernel 2.6. However the redir kernel module doesn't work
so access will only be available from /overlay directory. I'm not sure
whether the patch will apply correctly but I could update the patch to
avfs version 0.9.5 if you want to use it.
