Sorry for the chatter... arla makes me excited.  :)

I've gotten Robert's patches compiled and running under -CURRENT,
RELENG_7, and RELENG_6.  A FreeBSD port and FreeBSD packages are
available at

	http://setfilepointer.com/pub/afs/FreeBSD/

All of the heavy lifting is done in the big patch at=20

	http://setfilepointer.com/pub/arla/20080223-arla.diff

This was generated by taking a current snapshot from arla's CVS,
applying Robert's original patch, and then adding a handful of=20
fixes of my own.  The jist of my changes are autoconf corrections,
and one test for NNPFS_DEBUG_PRIV which is undefined on -CURRENT.
There's a general autoconf problem running around that a few tests
require -Werror to work correctly some can't have -Werror to work
correctly. =20

I've run the "-all -fast" tests which don't cause any major issues
on RELENG_7 and -CURRENT, but I do seem to be able to panic 6.x
with those tests.  More testers and feedback would be appreciated.

Can anyone from Arla comment on the chances for incorporating
these patches into Arla itself?  It'd be nice to have these changes
in Arla itself prior to submitting the port to FreeBSD.

And, can anyone comment on need for the arla port to include 0.43,=20
which works on FreeBSD 5.x?

Robert, thanks so much for your time.  I owe you (at least) a beer. =20
