I am not making a blanket argument against ReiserFS.  ReiserFS will work fine 
for /var/spool/news or /var/spool/mail, also it has never had any SE Linux 
issues for such use, there's the context= mount option and prior to that 
people were using ReiserFS on SE Linux systems with genfscon entries in the 
policy to give all ReiserFS files the desired context.  One machine I ran had 
ReiserFS used for /var/spool/squid and was configured such that all ReiserFS 
files had the type squid_cache_t.

Also given the fsck issue, it's probably best to mount ReiserFS file systems 
as nodev,nosuid.
