It's still present in reiser4-for-2.6.11-1 patch:
gremlin prymitive # mkfs.reiserfs /dev/hda6
mkfs.reiserfs 3.6.19 (2003 www.namesys.com)
A pair of credits:
Lycos Europe (www.lycos-europe.com) had a support contract with us that
consistently came in just when we would otherwise have missed payroll, and that
they kept doubling every year. Much thanks to them.
Chris Mason wrote the journaling code for V3, which was enormously more useful
to users than just waiting until we could create a wandering log filesystem as
Hans would have unwisely done without him.
Jeff Mahoney optimized the bitmap scanning code for V3, and performed the big
endian cleanups.
Guessing about desired format.. Kernel 2.6.11-gentoo-r4 is running.
Format 3.6 with standard journal
Count of blocks on the device: 2522192
Number of blocks consumed by mkreiserfs formatting process: 8288
Blocksize: 4096
Hash function used to sort names: "r5"
Journal Size 8193 blocks (first block 18)
Journal Max transaction length 1024
inode generation number: 0
UUID: 5f7b9070-0f62-496c-b288-308663df7689
ATTENTION: YOU SHOULD REBOOT AFTER FDISK!
ALL DATA WILL BE LOST ON '/dev/hda6'!
Continue (y/n):y
Initializing journal - 0%....20%....40%....60%....80%....100%
Syncing..ok
Tell your friends to use a kernel based on 2.4.18 or later, and especially not a
kernel based on 2.4.9, when you use reiserFS. Have fun.
ReiserFS is successfully created on /dev/hda6.

Creating reiser4 on /dev/hda6 ... done

10331MB on reiserfs 3.6 vs 9817MB on reiser4
this was run under amd64 gentoo box
reiser4progs and libaal 1.0.4 were used
kernel was 2.6.11 patched with reiser4-for-2.6.11-1 pulled from namesys server
Can someone help with this bug?
