[OpenAFS-devel] valgrind and openafs...

FYI, found one issue with valgrind and LWP... If you want any useful
results, prior to starting the process with valgrind, you need to
"setenv AFS_LWP_STACK_SIZE 1000000". Anything less than 1 MB it thinks
it's not a different stack and it's memory allocated on the same stack.
That makes the reports a lot quieter, so far mainly just memory leaks.=20
