JFYI, there seems to be a bug in the top-of-tree server, not sure
whether it's platform-dependent or not, that requires newly-created
volumes to be salvaged before they can be accessed for the first
time.  If they are not, then they do not appear to have any directory
entries, which you can imagine plays havoc with lots of things that
need to lookup `.' in order to work correctly (including the client on
both Windows and Linux).

I would say 5.x for sure.  If the client is really going to work
properly on 4.x, it won't be any of my doing -- I simply don't have
either the interest or the resources.
