Distrowatch is wrong:
http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/faq.html#nativesupport

Redhat will not add support for XFS natively until its in a stable kernel
tree (2.6.x).  Most likely 8.1 will be released before 2.6.x.  But you can
always get the unofficial RH installer from the XFS folks, so i consider
it to be a non-issue.
