Subject: 2.4.6-pre6 ext3 message

2.4.6-pre6 and ext3-2.4-0.0.8-246p5 (had to to hand patch a little).

This message popped up on an idle system -- there were no "odd" cronjobs
scheduled around this time. Nobody was logged on. System had been up for
a
little over a day...first time seeing any messages like this.
The source doesn't indicate whether this is serious or just informational.

Jun 30 15:58:55 yeti kernel: journal_commit_transaction: odd - more buffers

This is on a RAID1 dual IDE disk setup.

yeah, sorry. It's a debug message which escaped from the factory. I keep
on doing that.

It's expected, and there won't be any more. I promise.
