In an appeal from the district court's order affirming a bankruptcy court's order applying section 502(d) of the Bankruptcy Code to disallow a request for payment of administrative expenses until debtor's predecessor in interest returned a preferential transfer, the order is vacated where section 502(d) does not bar allowance of administrative expenses within the scope of section 503(b).
