Some programs are non-functional (f.i. clog), and the system repeatedly
crashes hard due to as yet unfound Coda kernel problems.

There are also several unresolved issues surrounding the cachemanager
unlinking cached files while they are accessed by the kernel. On Unix
this is not a problem at all, but Windows accesses files not by inode
but on the basis of the path leading to the file.

Not surprisingly, the Windows kernel doesn't like to be working with a
file that is being yanked away. It will be some time before we get it
all working correctly.
