Heck... if you can get that working, there's *another* neat thing we can
probably do:  instead of compressing LRU files, move them off to tape.
There are still some extra bits flags field that can be used for that.
(Basicly, when you have a daemon that moves files off of disk and onto tape
when space gets low, and a database to say where a specific device/inode is.
Then, have the tapes loaded automatically.)

Wouldn't *that* be fun! ;)
