	I've been running the 2.6 series for quite a while, and have
never seen this...

	I don't think this is 2.6 kernels as I've only used XFS on linux since...
~2000 (before it was in mainline; used to work at SGI)....I've used the SGID bit
for a couple of years, so I don't know exactly when it was fixed...

Last update to that bug seems to have been 2004...
