[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Dear tail developers,

I get this message when doing tail -f on a file which is stored on ZFS.

tail: unrecognized file system type 0x2fc12fc1 for `messages'. please
report this to bug-coreutils <at> gnu.org. reverting to polling

[I normally wouldn't report this as it's an unusual filesystem and tail
-f still works fine, but I'll do it as it asked me to :]

Best wishes,
Marius  Bjørnstad
