Is there a bug filed for this already? If 3.7.13 is waiting for its fix
it should have been added to the tracker...

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/showdependencytree.cgi?id=glusterfs-3.7.13

Without a bug report and details on what has been investigated already,
it does not make a lot of sense for me to look into it. I hate to do the
same work someone else did before me.

Thanks,
Niels
