well, I felt even more adventurous and did the ufd part as well, it is at

	http://www.eax.com/patches/packet/udf-0.9.3-2.4.5-ac9

it applies cleanly, and it SHOULD compile as well.

potential issues are that in ac9  the DQUOT_{ALLOC,FREE}_BLOCK had been
replaced by DQUOT_{ALLOC,FREE}_SPACE, and wrappers for the old functions.
This is quota stuff. It generates warning like below. I hadn't looked
at how/if to fix them.

warning: passing arg 1 of `DQUOT_FREE_SPACE' discards qualifiers from
 pointer target type
        http://www.eax.com/patches/packet/udf-0.9.3-2.4.5-ac9

so if someone wants (dare to :-) test out those patches and can report
that miraclously they actualy work, then I can put a tarball including
those and old patches together.
