Thanks for reporting back

By the way, the patch in debian seems largely based on the topic branch
lucab/btrfs
 (If I'm not wrong, 'lucab' is Luca Bruno, who seems to be a debian
developer). So it might actually be fixed when the patch is regenerated
from the topic branch _if_ it had been fixed there.

I'm not too sure. Anyways, I cannot really find the 'bigger' bug (with
the buf var instead of buf_btrfs) in there anyway, so perhaps there was
a manual cherry-pick involved. THe tip of the btrfs branch seems to
include the ustring comparison yet, so it is prone to break in the same
fashion as the current Ubuntu version.

I might check to see whether I can get Luca Bruno in contact directly

Cheers,
Seth
