Different result this time:

Info: Connected: client
Info: O_EXCL works
Info: Testing attribute cache..
Fatal: open(/mnt/nfs/blah) failed: Stale NFS file handle

This is on FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p5 and a NetApp NFS server.  I'm wondering 
if it is the same issue with the NFS client cache that I had to workaround 
in the past with dotlocking 
(http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2007-May/022883.html).

Before I implement the same workaround, I wanted to check if it would 
invalidate the test results assuming the workaround worked?
