That would not be a good idea. cdfs is a big help when it comes to
debugging cds or backing up stuff.

However, you are right that upstream is a bit behind. But this is no
reason to remove it. There are few other:
- Fill a bug report with upstream. I think he can be reached and could
  come out with a updated version. More over as beside the newer kernel
  problem I see no other major bug.
- Fix cdfs in debian only. The current problem should be easy to fix.
- Fork it upstream to go on with maintenance.

I put the upstream author in Cc so he can react.

By the way, is there any upstream repository?
