Let me know if you figure it out, I would like to build it too. I spent last week playing with different file systems. Reiserfs and jfs patch and compile w/o too much trouble. Xfs and NWFS seem to be missing good instructions on exactly how to patch them into the kernel, so I did not play with them.
BTW, I was quite impressed with JFS. Its definitly not ready for production yet, but its seems slightly faster than reiserfs (for my single benchmark, which is to build mozilla on the fs) and its only 2/3 of the size of reiserfs. If you want more info, take a look at:
