I think I've fixed most of the known bugs in Linux-AFS, including
executing large programs out of AFS!  Yes, Erik Nygren was successfully
able to execute xv, netscape, and maple out of AFS!  I encourage all
of you to help me test Linux-AFS 1.1.95-3.

I've given system:linux-dev read access to /mit/warlord/for_testers
so all of you can pick up this new kernel version to play with!

Please beat on the code; I'd like to know if you notice anything that
doesn't work right, or if it breaks, or whatever.

FYI: I'm _not_ sure whether the connection timed out bug still exists
or not, so please let me know if you get a spurious connection timed
out (and a subsequent bos status says the server is up!)

Thanks!
