Yes... (grumble...)
The quota syscall interface to the kernel changed substantially in
2.6, with no back-comparability support for old applications.
(It is easy to tell which interface to use, so it isn't hard to write
portable apps, but old apps just break).

The
  #define _LINUX_QUOTA_VERSION 1
that we put in allows it to compile on SL10 and newer Redhat etc, but 
the code created won't work on 2.6 :-(

I guess I'd better fix it....

Thanks,
NeilBrown
