just for the record: The host started acting up in more and more
interesting ways, and after a call of rm during kernel build resulted
in SIGSEGV, I did the backup-format-restore routine for this system
back to ext4 just to find out whether I have bad hardware or a bad
filesystem.

And, since going back to ext4, the system is just fine again. So it's
not bad hardware.

This systems's root drive is going to stay on ext4 for a loooooong
time. If I get the btrfs phenomena I experience on other hosts get
solved at some time in the future, I might migrate /home back to
btrfs, but that's not going to happen in the next six months.

This is a really bad experience which has made me lost a lot of faith
in the new filesystem. I really feel sad about that.

Greetings
Marc
