Hi Dale,
 This bug is fixed in patch-270. Again, a big thanks for having a little bit
different spec file than the normal, which made the bug to show up :p

 For the information of list, Dale was using io-threads below unify but
above client-protocol in client side, so he had two io-threads below unify.
(below, above corresponds to call flow, as in fuse comes at the top, and
posix comes at the bottom). We used to regularly test with a setup where
io-threads used to be above unify, so never hit on this bug.

Thanks again.
