The XFS codebase is the biggest pile of mess in the Linux kernel and you expect it to be not run into mysterious problems? Remember, XFS was PORTED over to Linux. It is not a 'native' thing to Linux.

Well yeah, but the way I remember it, SGI was using it for real work like video editing and storing zillions of files back when Linux was a toy with a 2 gig file size limit and linear directory scans as the only option. If you mean that the Linux side had a not-invented-here attitude about it and did the port badly you might be right...
