Thanks for digging that out. That is more like it. Would have been very
surprised by a 2038 limit in XFS still.

And actually… I would not use Reiserfs 3 anymore. And does Reiserfs 3
support big timestamps or it is for some other reason not affected by year
2038? As to my knowledge Reiserfs 3 has been mostly in maintenance mode
for way over 10 years now.

Best,
