http://linux.die.net/man/8/mkfs.xfs mentions backward compatibility a few times. In particular, the bit about extended attributes might be worth studying.
Indeed there are such references. Thanks for the pointer. I will have to dig up a 10.3 system and see in the man page there has anything different for those options when compared to 11.2. I am trying to get the user to provide more info on what happens when it fails. Always a good thing to have.
