building systemimager: problem compiling xfsprogs

I am trying to set up systemimager on an arch install.

I checked it out from cvs and begin the make process it runs for about an hour( slow machine I am working on ) then gets stuck at making xfsprogs with this message

Waiting for bit.o.lock to be removed

the message just keeps repeating itself

anyone have any insight as to this? or a workaround? google turns up nothing except a bugzilla report from Gentoo http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39559

which is the same exact error I am getting on the same file bit.c

wow a day later and no responses, well I figure someone had to have figured it out because there is an xfsprogs package which I just got to thinking, duh I can just pull it from abs and find out what needs to be changed

Hello Nocain,
did You succeed in using systemimager? I have built it and installed, but it seems to be no good with Arch (systemconfigurator issue?).

Re: building systemimager: problem compiling xfsprogs

Does anybody succesfull compiled and used systemimager under archlinux?
I'd like to set-up a small cluster HPC using Archlinux, but I need absolutely SystemImager to simplify the installation of the computing nodes.
