:For the record, the problem still exists in 2.2.8, but not in 3.x or 4.x.
:The problem also mentioned of weirdness occuring if an executable that is
:executed across NFS exceeding the CPU limit still exists in at least 3.3

    Uh foo.  Ok.  I don't think anything can be done about the filesystem
    corruption in 2.2.x, there have simply been too many bug fixes made in
    3.x and 4.x that depend on other major modifications that cannot be 
    backported.  I'll checkout-out the CPU limit problem under 3.x and 4.x
    but I cannot guarentee we'll get the fix in before the deadline.
