I've been a little bit out of GlusterFS lately but, what about the issue
with inode numbers changing with the first server (in the AFR system) goes
out making fuse crazy? How are things going with the distributed namespace
cache? I had an idea about this, it is ugly but fixes the problem if it
hasn't been fixed already.

Thanks!!! :)
