2.4.29 patches coming -- anyone wants to test?

Hello,

the bug with disappearing default acls that several people have reported
and that Jochen managed to find a reproducable test case for may be the
same bug that went into the 2.6 mainline tree about a week ago. I had
assumed that this bug didn't trigger under 2.4, especially since the
symptoms we saw under 2.6 were never reported for 2.4. Anyway, I decided
to update the 2.4 patch set to 2.4.29. Neither Jochen nor I can
reproduce Jochen's bug with the latest 2.6 (from BK + patches), so I'm
interested in getting test results from 2.4.29. You can find my current
work-in-progress patch set at
http://acl.bestbits.at/testing/split-2.4.29.tar.gz. The patches compile,
but I didn't run a single test so far. I'll continue tomorrow.

For reference, here are the references to the two xattr issues that were
fixed recently in 2.6:
