[OpenAFS] odd mount point behaviour.

[Steve Devine]

Sorry if I am missing something here.
We have two mountpoints that point to root.cell-RO and root.cell-RW

jax> fs lsmount msu
'msu' is a mount point for volume '#root.cell'
fs lsmount .msu.edu
'.msu.edu' is a mount point for volume '%root.cell'

ccmr-mlafs-1 afs]# fs lsmount  msu
fs: File 'msu' doesn't exist

Note it says "file msu doesn't exist."
This mount mount (msu) has been in use for years and many docs; etc 
refer to this.

Any ideas? Suggestions?
