[OpenAFS] Solaris 9 issues - making some progress

[Renata Maria Dart]

Hi, I see the same thing on our servers...on the servers where
vfsck is behaving correctly, we have kernel patch 112233-12 with 
113073-05 installed.  Our one server which is exhibiting the vfsck
errors has kernel 117171-05 with 113073-13.
