But according to doc/INSTALL,

  The last DID scheme recreates version 37b behaviour where
  directory id's are incrementally calculated versus the new
  hash method. Unfortunately for machines that have a lot of
  devices, and/or a lot of inodes the hash can fail with
  multiple directories resolving to the same DID.

So, some (or many?) of us feel uneasy about this.
What do you think about it?
