Hello folks, after converations on jabber (openafs@conference.openafs.org), 
Derrick made an alternative patch that initializes the skipserver[i] 
instead of working around it being not set. You can grab the 
openafs-stable-1_4_x branch from CVS or 1.4.8pre3 when it shows up
(pre3 will be out if Derrick gets a Mac issue done). Or you can take
the patch I have tested from the attachment.

Harald.
