Well this is a strange beast:

[root at turre mnt]# stat -f .
   File: "."
     ID: 70100000000 Namelen: 255     Type: nilfs
Block size: 4096       Fundamental block size: 4096
Blocks: Total: 49151      Free: 40960      Available: 24576
Inodes: Total: 2          Free: 0
[root at turre mnt]# touch 1
[root at turre mnt]# stat -f .
   File: "."
     ID: 70100000000 Namelen: 255     Type: nilfs
Block size: 4096       Fundamental block size: 4096
Blocks: Total: 49151      Free: 40960      Available: 24576
Inodes: Total: 3          Free: 0
[root at turre mnt]# touch 2
[root at turre mnt]# stat -f .
   File: "."
     ID: 70100000000 Namelen: 255     Type: nilfs
Block size: 4096       Fundamental block size: 4096
Blocks: Total: 49151      Free: 40960      Available: 24576
Inodes: Total: 4          Free: 0
[root at turre mnt]#

Advertising unlimited inodes with 0 available is an ... interesting 
choice. Chances are rpm is not the only thing getting upset by that.
