Hey Phil

The nightly builds for both HEAD and the 2.7 branch have been in a bad
state for a bit.  System interface and MPI-IO tests pass, but VFS
tests (specifically, dbench) hang. I'm surprised to see iget4/iget5
complaints, but I suspect once the nightlies pass then NFS exporting
will work better too.

There aren't *too* many vfs-related changesets in CVS since the last
"known good" revision.  If you're looking for an angle of attack on
this one, maybe see if any of those changesets look suspect to you.
