[OpenAFS] memory leak on file server process using 1.4.0 binaries

[Buhrmaster, Gary]

SLAC has also seen this (the exact amount of memory
"lost" will vary of course).  See the list archive
https://lists.openafs.org/pipermail/openafs-info/2005-November/020136.htm=
l
I guess it is useful to know that this is also seen
on Solaris 8 (we were going to test on Solaris 8/9,
but I do not believe we had yet done that).  It
is my understanding that this issue is being
actively worked on by an OpenAFS expert.  One
of my collegues that is actively involved may
be able to provide further information.
