I received the following error message when invoking tail:

tail: unrecognized file system type 0x2fc12fc1 for ‘/var/log/rsyncd’. please report this to address@hidden. reverting to polling

The invocation was "tail -vf /var/log/rsyncd" on an OpenSUSE 12.3 Linux/GNU system using zfs as its standard filesystem.  The zfs/spl version is 0.6.2 (from LLNL's ZFS on Linux codebase).

The coreutils version installed is coreutils-8.17-6.2.1.x86_64.

Thanks,
