:)

I've already put btrfs & btrgs-progs into Gentoo Linux, and I'm
naturally curious how many Gentoo users have tried it out as a result.
The packages are masked as "testing" (not stable), and they display the
"Btrfs is under heavy development..." warning, of course.

And Gentoo is used to handling autotools, so I can adjust the ebuild to
deal with this if needed.

Since Gentoo has its own way of specifying which kernel to build modules
against, as long as I can control this (I currently pass in a custom
"KERNELDIR"), things should work fine.
