XFS support is available as an optional module starting in RHEL 5.5.  In 
CentOS, you just grab it, so that's what I've been doing.  My 
understanding is that you may have to ask your sales rep to enable 
access to it under the official RedHat Network channels if you're using 
a subscription from them.  I'm not sure exactly what the support 
situation is with it, but it's definitely available as an RPM from RedHat.
