Right; I normally follow -PREVIEW and only went to HEAD a couple of weeks
ago because it was necessary to get vnodeinfo built.  I was under the 
impression that you had slipped the tag early this week to capture these
two commits (well, I didn't realize there were two, and that's sure to be
why my manual application of one of the two didn't resolve the issue).

}     I have included the diff between 1.31 and 1.33 of kern_lockf.c below
}     for reference but if you update to the latest preview you should
}     get the patches automatically.

No worries; I'll sync up and build again.  Thanks.
