+# PowerMAX OS has support for a few different kinds of filesystems. The
+# newer "xfs" filesystem does *not* report a reasonable value in the
+# 'nlinks' field of stat() info for directories (in fact, it is always 1).
+# Since xfs is the only filesystem which supports partitions bigger than
+# 2gig and you can't hardly buy a disk that small anymore, xfs is coming in
+# to greater and greater use, so we pretty much have no choice but to
+# abandon all hope that number of links will mean anything.
