Openafs is being updated to the latest stable 1.2.x release (1.2.13),
across all Scientific Linux 3.0.x distributions.  This release of
openafs has proven to be much more stable, and fixed many bugs from
previous releases.
In addition to openafs's fixes, the Scientific Linux openafs development
team have updated various parts.  "rpm -q --changelog openafs" will give
all of the changes, but some of the more important ones are
   - Updated CellServDB
   - dynroot and fakestat are turned on by default now
   - Startup script has several bugs fixed
   - 64 bit aklog bug fixed
