This issue has been around a long time. In fact, I remember that BeOS had
similar issues.

way, then the whole idea, neat as it is, is screwed and we need to disable
this feature. I have a patch in my local tree which disables this.

I'd say the warning is fine and we can keep the feature enabled. It
doesn't look like it's the case, though.
IME, this issue is intermittent, sometimes files copied form a bfs volume
have no problems on a ntfs volume, though most times the problem happens.
I've only copied files from a bfs volume to a ntfs volume.
If you have a patch that disable the attribute support, please attach it.
