ah, so basically noone would (could?) use any btrfs on intrepid/early jaunty 
that would then fail to work? I'm asking, because we've also got btrfs-source 
(of which I've no clue about its state). Should this also be updated once the 
modules are backported?

Thanks for your clarification :).

Cheers,
     Stefan.
