[PVFS2-CVS] commit by neill in pvfs2-1/src/kernel/linux-2.6: file.c super.c

[CVS commit program]

Update of /projects/cvsroot/pvfs2-1/src/kernel/linux-2.6
In directory parlweb:/tmp/cvs-serv17717/src/kernel/linux-2.6

Modified Files:
	file.c super.c 
Log Message:
- attempt to honor files opened for append by setting the file position to
  the end of the file at open time
[ it appears that this fixes runs of configure that generate c code, a first
  step in compiling pvfs2 on pvfs2 through the vfs.  i had thought the problem
  was elsewhere but discovered earlier today that this was what was happening ]
- remove some commented cruft
