Christoph,

Here is description of the changes from 0.3.0 -> 0.3.1

Function and Fixes in Utilities
- completed endian macros support needed for xpeek
- added socket support for fsck
- minor bug fixes

Function and Fixes in File System
- Removed max hard links check (showed up during cp -a /usr /jfs/usr)
- Fixed inode writing hang could have showed up running (dbench, iozone,
  etc), the change was to prevent a deadlock during inode writing.
