So, has anyone made any headway into writing a vfs lkm for hfs yet?

In my scrounging around so far I've thought about 3 approaches:
	- put all of libhfs into the hfsfs vfs lkm
	- split the hfs work into mount_hfsfs, much like the portal fs does
	- hack away at libc's open() et al.

I'm aware that there are licensing conditions which make putting a hfsfs
into the kernel source tree, but a package should be okay. Hence the lkm
business.

Is anyone working on this?
