Yep.  Last time I asked about it being added, I was told that it still fails
cerberus stress tests, even in read-only mode.

If you want NTFS on RH (or any 2.4-based kernel), you're better off
downloading the 2.5 backport of NTFS-TNG from
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/linux-ntfs/>, which works much better than
the stuff in the 2.4 kernel any way.
