ntfs-3g in Lucid

[stephan]

So glad to hear it will make it into Lucid!  Logical choice or not, many of
us are forced to use large (fragmented, even!) NTFS drives because
high-throughput data acquisition or other machines unfortunately run
proprietary operating systems.  Also, for collaboration and data-sharing, we
do not ship ext4 disks around =(  So we have no option but to use NTFS, and
2009.4.4 wasn't cutting it.

Really appreciate everyone's work ensuring we won't have to manually upgrade
all our ntfs-3g on data analysis machines!
