I've noticed that the link counts of files from an EXT2FS filesystem
(mounted in freebsd) all show up as 0.  For example, I have a machine
that dual boots between 3.2-release and Red Hat 6.0.  I have options
"EXT2FS" compiled into kernel and I mount linux's / partition:

  # mount_ext2fs /dev/da0s1 /mnt
  # /bin/ls -l /mnt
  total 65
  drwxr-xr-x  0 root  wheel   2048 Jul 29 13:22 bin
  drwxr-xr-x  0 root  wheel   1024 Jul 29 14:33 boot
  drwxr-xr-x  0 root  wheel  34816 Jul 30 01:09 dev
  drwxr-xr-x  0 root  wheel   3072 Jul 30 01:09 etc
  ...

Is there some reason for this?  Is it a known problem?
It is a bug, right?  The linux filesystem does have link counts.
