Right.  Which file system type are you using on your alpha?

It failed again.  I guess the admin of goetz need to be involved to
figure out which file system is used during build.  As mentioned
earlier, tmpfs had a kernel bug triggering the behaviuor we see during
build.  If it is used or other file systems have it took, it would
explain the issue on the autobuilder for alpha.

I guess we should turn off readahead on directories until it is safe
to enable it by default. :/
