Yes it does... and it also works with ReiserFS 4, if you patch the kernel with the mm or nitro patches (until Linus considers it stable enough to enter the kernel source).
Have in mind though that your regular liveCD will NOT be able to mount XFS/Reiser4 partitions, so if something bad happens then you must look for a Gentoo liveCD (which supports both XFS and Reiser4) or admit that you fecked it bigtime...
Better is IMHO to stick for the moment to proven and flexible stuff like ReiserFS 3.6, and leave XFS and Reiser4 for later.
PS: almost forgot: Arch uses solely gcc for compiling, and the old plain GNU make system (no "gmake" stuff, just "make")... That might dissapoint you, if you are a software developer, but it was built with simplicity in mind.
