Following up to my own post, Bill Nottingham of Redhat mentioned on the
rhl-beta-list that the last time they tried htree, they found quite a
few bugs and as such not including it.
http://listman.redhat.com/archives/rhl-beta-list/2003-July/msg00186.html
I haven't checked Taroon whether it includes htree (I doubt it) though
it claims to have ext3 updates for performance and stability
My understanding was that the last time Red Hat OS engineering tried
it was a before a number of ext3 bugs were fixed. I don't know of any
current problems with the htree code.
