I'm trying to build unionfs on RHEL5, and the latest RHEL5 kernel
apparently backported stuff that the unionfs patch assumed it needed to
add itself.  Not being a kernel hacker, I'm not sure if it's safe to
just remove the offending chunks of the patch or if there's other stuff
that goes with it that needs to be modified...

Patch #30000 (unionfs-2.3.3_for_2.6.18-RHEL5.diff):
+ patch -p1 -s
Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected!  Assume -R? [n]
Apply anyway? [n]
2 out of 2 hunks ignored -- saving rejects to file fs/Makefile.rej
The next patch would create the file fs/stack.c,
which already exists!  Assume -R? [n]
Apply anyway? [n]
1 out of 1 hunk ignored -- saving rejects to file fs/stack.c.rej
The next patch would create the file include/linux/fs_stack.h,
which already exists!  Assume -R? [n]
Apply anyway? [n]
1 out of 1 hunk ignored -- saving rejects to file
include/linux/fs_stack.h.rej
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.34723 (%prep)

The patch I was tryng to use is at
http://download.filesystems.org/unionfs/unionfs-2.x/unionfs-2.3.3_for_2.6.18-RHEL5.diff.gz

In case it helps with fixing the patch, I've put a tarball of RedHat's
kernel tree after the rest of their patches are applied (but without the
unionfs patch) at
http://people.mozilla.com/~justdave/kernel-2.6.18-92.1.6.el5.tar.bz2

If anyone knows what to fix I'd appreciate the help. :)

Thanks!
