No XFS in arm...testing ideas?

Greeting-

So in an attempt to lay down something other than a UFS on my USB Flash
I built the xfs programs and formated the drive as XFS only to find
that there is no kernel support for XFS.

[root at beaglebone /usr/src/sys/arm/conf]# !con
config BB-BEW
BB-BEW: unknown option "XFS"
[root at beaglebone /usr/src/sys/arm/conf]# 

The e2fsprogs are marked as being security risks, so has anyone any
other ideas for a POSIX compliant filesystem I can run on the BBone
other than UFS to test if the crashes are USB or UFS related?

I suspect USB because I never panic on writes to the SD card.

-Brett
