I did some idle searching when we were looking at the previous report
but couldn't find any specific kernel patches about this.  It's
presumably known on the kernel side but maybe not under the specific
"lseek reports stale EOF position" guise that we know it as.  If you
manage to track it down please do post back here, because we'd all
like to know.
