No, i have not test it because it's not really for obsd.
Before i send my previous email, i have scrutinized the diff between 
1.3.3 and this 1.4.1, nothing else.

My priority with cfs is to treat this problem, for blowfish i know that 
it will work.

So this evening-end i have upgraded 1.3.3 to this 1.4.1.
It was easy, i begin to know the code.
Unfortunaly the problem is always here.
However it doens't seem to  prevent a "normal" usage, i must take care 
with "ls -R" (and "rm -r" more sporadically) in some special conditions.
At the beginning i thought it's a bug, but now i think it's a 
misconfiguration because i have the same problem with another machine 
3.3 i386 and nobody else, or very few people with other os, has this 
problem. I will post a report ASAP and contact this other people.

This 1.4.1 has a shortcoming, the code for blowfish is embeded in it, i 
don't know how a port is managed but this mean that you don't reuse the 
code in /usr/src/sys/crypto for example.
