Since lufs suposedly supports 2.5 kernels, it should also support 2.6 kernels.  It ought to be trivial to fix this up, and send a patch to the lufs people.

Try this - I don't have a 2.6 kernel, so I can't test this, but it should
work
if the headers don't need modification.

doesn't work.

OK, this is non-trivial, and I don't have enough experience of working with
the kernel to fix it myself, so unless someone else wants to patch it I'd
suggest marking it resolved as cantfix or later.

Okay, added an updated ebuild and a patch which you stick in files. Make
sure the patch is in files and has a "lufs-0.9.6.Kernel2.6Support.patch"
filename!

Compiles fine, but I don't know how to test this. If it works, tell me and
I'll commit this in.

ftpfs seems to be working; however, I have been unable to successfully use
an sshfs system.

In which case this needs upstream intervention and is not a Gentoo bug.
