1.2.9 unstable ? (was [OpenAFS] inaccessibble volume - please help)

[Lee Damon]

For whatever it is worth I can confirm both the problem and the fix.  We
upgraded to Linux 2.4.20-13.7 (Red Hat 7.3) and OpenAFS 1.2.9 and every time
we rebooted the host hung at the "warm shutdown" line.

The hang has not happened since applying the umount.diff patch.
