Whoops, that should be MFT (Master File Table) not MFS.
Probably got confused by all those MFS messages :-)
And btw there is afaik also no reason why a new NTFS driver couldn't be
developped for NT (that supported NFS metadata). NTFS support is according
to the docs a separate module. (but that is the theory, not practice)
