I do not understand why this is necessary, but send a patch to
fai at informatik.uni-koeln.de and it will look at the patch.
the keyword auto has some problems on woody, so it was not used.

Ok. What if you specify xfs after the semicolon in the preserve line?

Yes, please send them to fai at informatik.uni-koeln.de, not to the
mailling list

There's read only access to the CVS tree as described in the fai
guide.
