As a matter of fact  my memories were about linux 2.4, I had the
problem with netatalk.

In my understanding, after a quick look at linux 2.6 source code, it's
by default for all file systems write, cf. mm/filemap.c.

On the other hand SIGXFSZ is sent when files ulimit  is reached so
maybe tools should
deal with it.
