Yes, I have after much trouble gotten 2.4.19-r4 to compile with XFS 
support.  Took me 5 tries though.  Under processor features is where you 
can disable APCI support.  When I tried to enable APCI support, I had the 
same error.  Getting rid of it seemed to fix the problem.  I'm suprise you 
got 2.4.81-xfs to work as I could not get it to work.  Every time I would 
try to get it to boot, it would hang on Initializing CPU#0 with or without 
APCI support.  I can send you my.config if you want it.
