Its not cosmetic.  If your file server is returning negative values for
quota and available free space then it is doing so to the Windows
client.  Patches for both 1.4.x and 1.6.x have been pushed into the
repository.  You can apply them locally and rebuild your file servers.

There is no scheduled date for 1.6.2.

The 1.6 commit is a64864529d1fca2b5a3f4d21ec598982be335368.
