Did you update the jails recently from a FreeBSD version without  
posix_fadvise? I noticed in my ezjail-update logs that the update of  
files with file flags fails without aborting the installation/update.  
So maybe you have some old libs around. I recursively removed the  
flags from my basejails and did the update again. A quick look at  
ezjail suggests that the removal of the flags should happen  
automatically, but I didn't had the time to dig deeper.

Bye,
Alexander.
