[OpenAFS] vos move & vos rel failing on large volumes

[Nathan Neulinger]

Not sure if it's in the release build or not, but I added a lot more
diagnostics to vos move. Might need to build from a cvs snapshot to get
those improvements.

For us, 2GB volumes take 15-20 minutes to move... haven't paid much
attention to how long it takes to release, but definately not 8 hours. 

Of course, what's the makeup of your volume - if it's millions of small
files, it is going to take longer.
