  shutting down while AFS is still mounted.

- On Linux, the client will initialize and use i_alloc_sem in inodes if
  present.

- A potential loop condition in the cache manager has been corrected.

- Several fileserver defects have been corrected, including a potential
  deadlock at shutdown time.

- A problem where some error conditions were not translated to system
  error codes on the client has been corrected.

Please try out this candidate release and report your findings.
