Hi Christophe,

perfect. Just the thing I would have proposed to do. So it is narrowed down
quite a bit. And with a bit more trials, this should lead to the offender.

Just to make sure not to misunderstand: this one is still good?

Assuming your thought if jfs is true (and this would make a log of sense as it
must be something not in the usual install, otherwise we should see much more
problems), there is one commit between your current place and the merge that
touches the jfs code. And that would be "helpers for acl caching + switch to
those"...
