Sorry, I admit I follow BTRFS irregularily and main point in my mail was 
to announce the backport.

Hmmm, that still doesn't match, cause I wrote a 100MiB file to the 
partition:

mango:~# dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/zeit/ddimg bs=1M count=100
100+0 Datensätze ein
100+0 Datensätze aus
104857600 Bytes (105 MB) kopiert, 0,313594 s, 334 MB/s

Thus I should have get 200MiB used in df -h. Hmmm, maybe accurate size 
reporting needs a newer BTRFS than in 2.6.32.3?

Ciao,
